Preparations for Kirkcudbright Book Festival 2026 are well under way with the new website having gone live ahead of publication of the programme and the recent launch of a new gift voucher scheme.
The 2026 festival will take place between March 5-8 in the Dumfries and Galloway town and will build on the success of the annual Kirkcudbright Book Week, which was founded in 2019.
The festival will take place annually over four days at the beginning of March, starting with World Book Day on the Thursday, and the eagerly-awaited programme will be revealed on January 1.
The festival team say that the programme will celebrate local and national voices, local history, Scottish culture, children’s authors, crime fiction, nature and the environment and much more, and will include talks, workshops and activities for readers of all ages.
The website also includes details of the new Gift Voucher scheme, which will allow people to buy tickets for their family and friends and will be valid for any of the 2026 Book Festival events. The website can be found at https://kbtbookfestival.org
