THIS LITERARY FESTIVAL'S WAYS WITH WORDS MAY WELL PERSUADE SPONSORS

Ways With Words is an annual, ten-day literature festival which takes place in the glorious buildings of Dartington Hall in Devon. The mediæval courtyard at Dartington, with its Great Hall, Barn Theatre and on-site accommodation, makes a perfect setting for a high quality, civilised and most enjoyable festival.

The festival is run in association with the Telegraph Media Group who offer substantial editorial coverage and promotional space to the festival in the Daily and Sunday Telegraph, online and to their subscribers list. Ways With Words takes place in July each year and during the course of the ten days there are about 120 different events, with over two hundred speakers giving talks, readings, performances and taking part in discussions.

The speakers who attend are leading authors in the UK and abroad, politicians, commentators, journalists and personalities from the media world. Past speakers and regular attenders include Joan Bakewell, Roy Hattersley, Martin Bell, Kate Adie, Michael Buerk, Melvyn Bragg, Baroness Warnock, A.C. Grayling, Salley Vickers, Rageh Omaar, Blake Morrison, Michael Frayn and Claire Tomalin.

During the festival about 20,000 audience members attend. A typical audience member will be 45+, well-educated with some disposable income and interested in new ideas and intellectual improvement. There is access to exclusive hospitality facilities.

"There are many opportunities for sponsors to tailor a package which suits you and your clients".
