Talks, panel discussions and a  film night will be held in and around three historic venues: the St Albans School of Arts (a rare corrugated iron hall built by locals last century); the historic sandstone church of St Alban the Martyr; and the Settlers Arms Inn garden (1834). Talks by individual writers on their latest works, will be balanced by panels on crime fiction, science fiction and fantasy, social trends, book signings and informal round table chats.
