Ever since the first Chiswick Book Festival in 2009, we’ve been bringing together top authors and their readers for a week of history, poetry, biography, creative writing, fiction, thrillers, food, wine, politics and children’s books. The dates for the 17th Festival were 10-15 September 2025. This year it will be 9-14 September.
