The EPF returns this summer with a dozen free events, as poets from nations across our continent, and across the UK, come together for one of the grandest celebrations of European poetry ever to take place in Britain. Celebrating collaboration, literary liveness and cross-linguistic inventiveness, our events at National Poetry Library, National Centre for Writing, Rich Mix, Kingston University Town House and more, are renowned for their energy, community and dynamic performative originality. This year the festival will be visited by poets from Catalunia, Flanders, Switzerland, Sweden, Austria, Latvia, Norway and many other nationalities, and the festival will once again be entirely collaborative, with new works presented as premieres, made, for the events, by visiting poets and their UK-based counterparts.
