Annual festival underway until 1 October
Manx Lit Fest 2023 is well underway and off to a strong start with numerous events selling out already.
The festival, which runs until this Sunday (1 October), is made up of various literary, poetry, and art events held all over the Island.
It also includes 'School Day' where visiting and local authors go to more than 20 Manx schools to deliver workshops.
Festival director Helen Jessop hopes this will help young people build up a habit of reading:
