Canterbury Festival is celebrating its 26th anniversary this year and 70,000 people are expected to attend. The line-up including classical and world music, mixed with theatre and comedy, make the event extremely popular, with Canterbury Cathedral at the heart of the festival events. A wee literary strand wending it's way through. It would be a wonderful thing if they expanded the literary element. Anyone out there listening?
