About the festival
The festival will bring together novelists, historians, artists, and actors who will descend on the village of Braemar to honour the power and quiet beauty of the written and spoken word. Connecting readers and literary enthusiasts of all ages with heartfelt readings from the authors who penned the words, the festival will provide a forum to engage in spirited discussion.
Over the course of the weekend, visitors will be able to enter the fascinating world of royal recipes in the company of Tom Parker Bowles, in conversation with Matthew Fort, as they explore Tom’s latest book Cooking and the Crown: Royal Recipes from Queen Victoria to King Charles III. They will also have a chance to join award-winning landscape architect and designer of the Fife Arms’ garden, Jinny Blom, and she introduces her new book What Makes a Garden, which focuses both on the creative act of designing landscapes and the impacts of time and culture on making a garden. As well as listen to author and actor Alan Cumming who will be joined by actress, broadcaster and singer Fiona Kennedy as they deliberate the many and wide-ranging ways in which words and literature have shaped his life and career, in what promises to be a hugely entertaining, personal and insightful talk.
