With just a week to go to The Heath Bookshop Literature and Music Festival the countdown has begun, make sure you’ve got your tickets to this biannual celebration of all thing’s books and music, taking place 15 – 19 April 2026.
A partnership with How Brave is the Wren and the Hare & Hounds, the festival features 35 events for literature and music lovers of all ages, across 13 venues. The biannual festival is supported by National Lottery Project Grants funding through Arts Council England.
And if you needed further encouragement to make sure you have your tickets, comedian, painter and Kings Heath champion Joe Lycett added: “In the words of the late, great John Keats: ‘beauty is truth, truth beauty, beauty is the Alcester Road, truth the Heath Bookshop, that is all ye need to know.”
