Sentinel Literature Festival is a biennial event run by Sentinel Poetry Movement. First held in December 2009, the festival now runs every other October.

 

The participants and events at the festival have been carefully chosen and structured to excite and engage both writers and fans of literature.

 

The mix of readings, storytelling, performances, lectures, talks, presentation of papers, and interactive sessions means that guests at our festival will not only enjoy fine literature, but will also share ideas, and gain insight into the amazing processes that produce the literary gems that define our time.
