Huge crowds have packed the Tuesday Market Place in recent times to welcome The Human League, Suzi Quatro, Atomic Kitten, Toyah Wilcox, the Stranglers, Lemar and Sophie Ellis Bextor. In addition, a variety of daytime street entertainment in the town centre provides fun for all the family. Still one of Europe’s largest FREE festivals.
The town also hosts the annual King’s Lynn Poetry Festival and the King’s Lynn Fiction Festival. These Literature Festivals are held during a single weekend in March (Fiction) and September (Poetry) each year. The organiser’s guiding principle is to present some of the best contemporary writers in a congenial and informal setting.
You will see writers of international repute alongside new writers, from all age ranges and from locations across the world. Meet the authors, hear them reading and buy their books
There are lots of other events in the town centre; check out the West Norfolk events calendar for forthcoming events happening all over West Norfolk.
