Welcome to Bookville 2022!

We are delighted to announce that the annual Bookville Festival will take place for the sixth consecutive year this October.

Details of events will be posted later in the year, but we can promise you an exciting programme, featuring some of the best contemporary children's authors and illustrators.

The 2022 Bookville Festival will include a new version of the hugely popular Bookville Festival Book, online videos, a Bookville exhibition and (fingers crossed) live events.

Follow us on social media and keep up to date on all things Bookville!

Bookville is brought to you by Kilkenny Arts Office and Kilkenny Library Service supported by the Creative Ireland programme.  
This festival would not exist without our audiences and the support that you give to the festival.
We hope that Bookville  2021 will inspire children of all ages to become critical thinkers with curious minds.
