Today, the Wild Words Festival team met at Colesdale Farm, just outside Potter’s Bar, to start imagining how the site will come together. This beautiful grassland is great for wild-style camping, and it feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere: you would hardly believe you can get here with an Oyster Card!

We’ve also started reacking out to potential stars of our show. If you have a new book coming out in spring/summer 2022, or you’re a poet or performer who thinks you’d fit our inspiting, insightful, and inclusive bill, please let us know!
