Letterature - International Literature Festival

Event Dates

The Basilica di Massenzio in Rome hosts Letterature, an international literature festival that brings successful writers and their unpublished texts to the stage.

Based on this year's theme, "near, far", each text is produced specifically for the festival and it is either read out to the public by its creator in original language or presented in a video format.

Among the most awaited guests are Isabel Allende (Chile), Ismael Beah (Morocco) and Irish writers John Banville and Catherine Dunne.

For full programme details, please visit the festival website. Please note that even though entrance is free, visitors are still required to present a token, which is available from the box office in Via dei Fori Imperiali.
