About this event
European Writers Salon (www.saloneurope.org) is travelling to Madrid to host an open mic salon in partnership with international bookstore, Desperate Literature. All are welcome!
We'll listen to excellent readings, drink wine and get to know writers from Madrid and across Europe in a friendly setting.
Further details will be made available nearer the time, including how to sign up to read and exact timings.
This will be a friendly and welcoming event - if you are planning on coming alone, don't worry! We will be in touch with everyone in advance and will arrange opportunities to meet/write/eat/book accommodation together around the evening event so that everyone meets new people and feels part of our community.
Ticket prices include wine and soft drinks.
We look forward to meeting you in Madrid!

Desperate Literature is an international bookshop in Madrid, Spain. We are delighted they have agreed to host us: https://desperateliterature.com/
We hope that many writers from Madrid will come and also that others will travel from across Europe to meet one another. Everyone is welcome, from anywhere.
No food this time, sorry! But wine and soft drinks are included. We will facilitate opportunities for people to meet and eat before/after.

All. Any. We welcome all writers in all genres at any stage of your career. If you want to come, we want to meet you.
It's for everyone who wants to come. Live in Europe - great. Visiting Europe - great. From Europe but living elsewhere - great. You're all welcome. Whatever sort of writer, wherever you're from, whoever you know - we want to meet you!
There are 3 options: General Admission, Subsidised (please only buy one of these if you need it), Admission plus donation (helps us to provide drinks and cover our costs). Please choose the one that suits you. Thank you so much!
EWS wants to ensure our events are as accessible as possible for all. We follow WHO guidelines and will therefore provide masks for those who wish to wear them. We encourage people to test in advance and avoid coming if they have any symptoms.
