FESTIVAL TIMETABLE
Travellers' Tales Festival presents two vibrant days of talks, debates, workshops, films and fun, with some of the world's greatest travel writers and photographers, in a unique gathering of international talent and energy.
Key figures giving landmark lectures include John Simpson, Don McCullin, William Dalrymple, Steve McCurry, Colin Thubron, Art Wolfe and Alexander McCall Smith. They will be joined by a galaxy of other speakers and panellists, and exciting all-day features (see right).
