Over the years Slightly Foxed has come to seem more like a club of people who love books than just a magazine. This is always very noticeable at our annual Readers’ Day – our one-day literary festival – a high point in the Slightly Foxed calendar, to which some of you come year after year to meet the staff and listen to some of our contributors and friends speak about a wide range of books, authors and other bookish subjects.
Slightly Foxed Readers’ Day 2024 will be held on Saturday 2 November at our usual London haunt, the Art Workers’ Guild on Queen Square in Bloomsbury, a short walk from Russell Square and Holborn tube stations.
Tickets include a glass of Madeira and a slice of fruit cake, and a goody bag
*NB Tickets are non-refundable. If you are no longer able to attend Readers’ Day, please contact the Slightly Foxed office as soon as possible: [email protected] / +44 (0) 202 7033 0258. If we are able to resell your ticket, we will be able to refund you.
Our programme for the day is still being finalized, but we are delighted to welcome:
Ariane Bankes on The Quality of Love, the story of the beautiful, spirited and clever Paget twins who stole the hearts of London’s 1930s intelligentsia
Aasmah Mir in discussion with Suzi Feay on A Glasgow Girl – Aasmah’s bittersweet memoir of growing up between two cultures in 1970s Glasgow
