About The Event
North London born poet, comic, singer, songwriter and accomplished glasses-wearer, John Hegley has captivated audiences with live performances all over the country, in theatres and at festivals and gigs from Glastonbury to the Edinburgh Festival, and has appeared on numerous occasions on radio and television. He was the Keats House poet in residence in 2012 and was part of a recent Arts Council England funded project called Putting You in the Picture, which encouraged children to respond to art on display in galleries.
We are enormously excited to welcome him as our headline act on the final Sunday of the 2025 Hastings Book Festival, when he’ll bring the festival to a close with a fabulously funny, thought provoking and heart warming show.
We hope you can join us for a show stopping evening delivered by a legendary live performer. Save with our Bookmark Bundle, find out more here https://www.hastingsbookfest.org/events/bookmark-bundle
