About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Join Open Book for an evening of poetry and performance at the 2025 Edinburgh International Book Festival!

Members from our Edinburgh-based groups will be sharing their writing and we'd love to see you there. It will be a relaxing and friendly evening and a lovely chance to celebrate the amazing work of our creative writing groups.

We have a small number of tickets set aside for Open Book members which you can book via this eventbrite page. Or, feel free to book through the book festival page linked below.

The event will take place in Venue B and you can find the book festival page for it here: https://www.edbookfest.co.uk/the-festival/whats-on/together-we-repair-4

Organized by

We organise and run weekly shared reading sessions for a diverse range of community and public participants across Scotland. Part of a book and a poem are read aloud during these relaxed and informal sessions, with an Open Book Lead Reader on hand to help guide the discussion. We regularly run creative writing sessions for our readers, using the material the group is reading as inspiration to create new writing.
