We are the UK's largest dedicated children's literature festival returning on Saturday 24 & Sunday 25 June 2023
LOVE THE FESTIVAL? MAKE A DONATION!
The Barnes Children’s Literature Festival is entirely organised by unpaid volunteers and all our programmes are funded by your ticket purchases and donations. We’re so grateful for any gift, big or small, that helps us bring you more of the Barnes you love.
⏰Hands up if anyone minds if the clocks go forward 90 days instead to bring us straight to the start of the UK's biggest kids' books party on Saturday 24 & Sunday 25 June? #BCLF2023 #YES Pic. #AxelScheffler https://t.co/69gDkc26BL

“I’m delighted to welcome everyone to the very special Barnes Children’s Literature Festival. As the Chancellor of Roehampton I’m proud that the University is in partnership with the Festival and will involve our lecturers and students in the programme. As a writer of children’s books I have very fond memories of taking part in the Festival myself, and know it to be delightful, imaginative, innovative – and beautifully organised.
Enjoy, everyone!”
Dame Jacqueline Wilson, Chancellor, University of Roehampton
