Thanks to the support of our many sponsors, small businesses and Festival Friends we are able to  bring many high profile Authors and Poets to Northumberland every year.

Over the past year our vibrant programme for young people across the County has been supported by Arts Council England, Northumberland County Council and the  generous support of the Gillian Dickinson Trust.

                                         

We are grateful to all our Sponsors and partners and, of course, to our fabulous volunteers and audiences who help to make the Festival such a success. 

With special thanks to our Partners:

Thank you so much for an absolutely wonderful event last night. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed being back in beautiful Hexham - thank you for everything you and the team did to make it all run so smoothly.
Tracy Borman
I feel incredibly lucky to have this festival on my doorstep. It is world class.
Hexham Book festival is a leading creative force in the Northumbrian cultural landscape, with a positive impact on the lives of so many. Locally based, outward-facing, brilliantly organised, and recognised by writers and readers as one of the attractive and dynamic literary festivals.
David Almond
Two words, absolutely fantastic. Really looking forward to next year!
