Hay Festival was founded around a kitchen table in 1987 and continues to attract the most exciting writers, filmmakers, comedians, politicians and musicians to inspire, delight and entertain. It's huge.
Rumours about a one-legged author reading from his book whilst traversing a high wire on a mono cycle at this year's event are yet to be confirmed!
The Children's Festival Hay Fever runs alongside the Hay Festival every year.
When? Thursday, 24th May through to Sunday 3rd June 2018
