Folkestone Book Festival

Folkestone has a strong literary heritage. Charles Dickens lived and wrote
here, as did HG Wells, setting famous works like Kipps in the town. Samuel
Beckett was married in Folkestone, and just to the north Ian Fleming and
Noel Coward had homes.

The Creative Foundation has run the town's popular Folkestone Book Festival
since 2002, when it replaced the established Kent Literature Festival.

The annual Book Festival features a week of literary events, performances
and lively debate with a host of well known and emerging authors, poets and
performers entertaining packed audiences at Quarterhouse.
