THE Looe Literary Festival gets under way next week with a packed programme celebrating literature, storytelling and creativity in all its guises.
Following the success of the very first festival in 2014, this year’s event is set to be bigger and better yet, with some top personalities on the line-up as well as many local authors and speakers.
Headlining the festival this year is national treasure and showbiz star Christopher Biggins (pictured).
The Festival begins on Thursday (November 12) with a talk on Looe’s past with historian Mark Camp, illustrated by many fascinating archive images. Local fisherman Paul Greenwood will be joining Mark for an evening of local history and fishing heritage.
The festival weekend continues with many local authors, poets and photographers providing insights into their inspiration and work.
