Canada Literature Festival 2026

The Canada Literature Festival is conceived as a global gathering celebrating the power of literature, storytelling, and cultural dialogue.
It brings together distinguished authors, poets, artists, policymakers, scholars, and members of the literary community from across the world to explore how stories shape societies, preserve cultural memory, and build bridges between cultures. In the Canadian context, home to one of the most vibrant and multicultural diasporas from around the world, the festival seeks to create meaningful conversations from literary traditions while strengthening people-to-people connections through culture and ideas.
