The Liverpool Literary Festival returns this autumn (Friday 6 to Sunday 8 October) featuring BBC Radio 6 Music's Stuart Maconie and former TV presenter Melanie Sykes.
Now in its eighth year, this well-established festival will include talks from broadcasting legends, Stuart and Melanie, as part of a weekend of inspirational discussions with an exceptional line up of authors.
This year we're also welcoming new Festival Director Professor Greg Lynall, Head of English at the University of Liverpool. Greg said: "I'm delighted to be joining the Liverpool Literary Festival team this year and can't wait to welcome everyone to the beautiful surroundings of the University's Victoria Gallery and Museum.
"It's fantastic that household names Stuart Maconie and Melanie Sykes will be joining us in Liverpool to discuss their latest books and literary journeys.
