The Sherborne Travel Writing Festival
 

While our horizons have drawn in, travel writers have continued to reach out, rediscovering and reinterpreting the world for a new age. The Sherborne Travel Writing Festival was the first travel literature festival to be held in the UK in recent years. At its heart was the idea – and the timely theme – of reaching for the horizon. 

​

The 2025 festival was a huge success and we are already looking forward to next year.

 

The Festival returns across the weekend of 10-12 April 2026.
