Longyearbyen Literature Festival

About

Turn your gaze towards the North in September and the world’s northernmost literature festival on Svalbard.

Here you will find wonderful literary experiences for both youth and adults. Several well-known authors are visiting us, and there will be literary conversations in restaurants, bars and in the library.

There will also be other events such as concerts and a slam poetry-evening. 

Welcome to a unique literary happening in the Arctic! 

The festival-program can be found here.

Longyearbyen Literature Festival is an environmentally approved event.
