Wilmslow Festival of Writing 2025! AMAZING

What an absolutely phenomenal Wilmslow Festival of Writing we had this past Saturday! The atmosphere was simply wonderful, brimming with like-minded individuals connecting, learning, and sharing in the joy of writing.

We extend our deepest gratitude to all the attendees who joined us and made the day so vibrant. Your enthusiasm and engagement truly made the festival special.

A massive thank you to our incredible performers who captivated us with their talent. Rosanna McGlone, a true powerhouse, facilitated two fantastic events. Her poetry workshop was so popular we had to expand it, and her presentation on "Feisty Females" was equally well-received. Her experience and skill are an absolute gift, and we're so grateful for her staunch support. We also send huge thanks to the amazing, funny, and delightful Adam Farrer, who gave a brilliant reading from his bestselling book, "Broken Biscuits and Other Male Failures." His self-effacing humor was irresistible, and we were so fortunate to host him.

Our sincere appreciation goes out to all the workshop facilitators who shared their expertise and inspired so many. The hard work, fun, productivity, and even time travel packed into those few hours were truly remarkable.

To our dedicated stallholders, thank you for contributing to the rich tapestry of the festival. Your presence added so much to the overall experience for our attendees.

Finally, and certainly not least, a monumental thank you to all the volunteers who helped out on the day. Your tireless efforts and support were invaluable in making the festival run so smoothly. We also want to give a special shout-out to the guys from Mentell who came along to support Adam Farrer; we are proud supporters of their vital work.

For those who missed out on this incredible day, we'll be posting a series of pictures to give you a taste of what you missed and tempt you for next year! Yes, we'll be back – mark your calendars for July 4, 2026! We're already busy booking speakers and exhibitors to make it even better.

Thank you once again to everyone who made the Wilmslow Festival of Writing an unforgettable success!
