Daljit Nagra, Paul Francis, The Democratic Republic Of Djembe

It’s party time! To kick off the festival, they are holding a party for invited guests and Friends of Wenlock Poetry Festival.

With drinks and nibbles, poetry from Daljit Nagra and Paul Francis, and music from drumming troupe The Democratic Republic of Djembe, it’s a chance to take a deep breath, relax and prepare yourself for the marathon weekend ahead!

This event is by invitation only, but if you would like to come along to mingle with some of the festival performers, meet other poetry lovers, and generally have a good time, why not become a Friend of Wenlock Poetry Festival which will entitle you to two free tickets along with many other great benefits?
