Lady Daphne 2nd Books on the Barge Festival

Charlestown, Cornwall

After the success of our first Literary Festival onboard Lady Daphne in 2023, we are back with our 2nd “Books on the Barge” festival. 

On Sat 10th and Sun 11th August we will welcome onboard a selection of local authors, editors and publishers to meet and greet. Get to chat to the authors and buy signed copies of their latest books to take home and enjoy.

We will have sections on Romance, Travel, Children’s books, Cornwall stories and 2nd hand books for you to browse through.

Some of the featured authors will be Lamorna Ireland, Hermitage Press, Cornwall Writers, Paula Rooney, Emily Charlotte Editorial Services, Debbie Gower, Tina Barrott, Jane Cable plus a few more.

Drinks will be available from our licensed Bar throughout the event. 

Entry is FREE.

Please note access to the Barge is across a gangplank and downstairs. Sadly no wheelchair access. Sensible footwear.

ALL funds raised from our events go towards the constant upkeep and maintenance of Lady Daphne and to help pay to support local artists with their projects.
