London Literature FestivalThe Southbank serves up its annual dose of world class literature with a delectable array of spoken word performances, exciting new collaborations, workshops and talks from major writers and thinkers from around the world. Now in its seventh year, the festival has jumped a couple of months earlier to May. Programme highlights include a night of readings by authors on the shortlist for the Man Booker Prize; a strand on Alternative Lifestyles; artistic and scientific perspectives on the world's Bees; a celebration of the history, neighbourhoods and creative tensions of London; as well as a line-up of the world's best writers, poets, performers and thinkers, not to forget the ever-popular Women's Prize for Fiction Readings. Speakers at the popular two-week event include literary greats such as Barbara Kingsolver, biographer Claire Tomalin, 'We Need to Talk About Kevin' author Lionel Shriver and historian William Dalrymple.

 

About Southbank Centre

London's hub of cultural arts, The Southbank Centre announced in March 2013 that it's set for a £100 million revamp that will see the 1960s design finally move into the 21st century with a proposal that includes a floating glass pavilion, two more roof gardens, a space for riverside arts and a large pedestrian area.
