Events Description
One opening night, two Canadian sports titans, one very hot ticket. We’re elbows-up proud to showcase Cassie Campbell-Pascall (Just a Girl) and Clara Hughes (Learning to Breathe) to launch the 31st edition of The Imaginairium. They’ll be talking to Leah Sarich about grit, resilience, what it took to be the best, life after the podiums, and coming in strong for their next chapters.
Welcome to The Imaginairium, Canada’s Liveliest Literary Festival. Festival Passes on sale now.
This fall, Wordfest is where your imagination goes to get real. We’re thrilled to present 41 shows featuring the 60 authors appearing at our 31st annual festival: Superstars who personify the dazzling range of Canadian and international storytelling. They are the very best humans, which makes the opportunity for you to connect with each of them in person even more magical.
