The 2017 Cardiff Children’s Literature Festival returns next spring from 25 March – 2 April and after celebrating Dahl’s splendiferous City of the Unexpected, Cardiff is looking forward to more book-tastic fun.

The event has continued to grow over the years and will again run across two weekends – this year’s event will be bigger and better than ever with a host of exciting events in English and Welsh running at venues across the city.

Once again, authors and illustrators will be making their words and pictures come to life with amazing tales and performances featuring a cast of wonderful characters.

The festival is ideal for all those who love children’s books and will welcome Roald Dahl Funny Prize winner Andy Stanton, festival favourite David Solomons, Hugless Douglas creator David Melling, picture book author and illustrators Chris Haughton, Rob Biddulph, BBC’s Mike Dilger, Clara Vulliamy, Huw Aaron, Anni Llŷn (Bardd Plant Cymru), Manon Steffan Ros and celebrated local author Jenny Nimmo, to name but a few.

Tickets: £4 (for each event).
