Marlborough LitFest is not just a festival, it’s about community and engaging those around us.

The festival is run by volunteers who live in the town and surrounding area. This includes the committee which organises the event and more than 140 local people who make it all happen over the festival weekend. We could not run Marlborough LitFest without the help of our many volunteers who work so hard both in the run up to and during the festival. The Marlborough LitFest Committee would like to thank them all enormously for their hard work and dedication to the festival.

Volunteers commit to helping at at least one morning or afternoon session at the festival, in return they get invited to our LitFest programme launch where they can buy tickets for our events (and discounted books) before they go on general sale. Of course they also get to watch the events they help at!
