BookTastic 2026 The Children's Book Festival
Another Incredible Chapter at The Booktastic Book Festival
Bedford’s annual Children’s Book Festival, The Booktastic Book Festival, this year welcomed over 500 children for five days of literary excitement. This event serves as a gateway to imagination, confidence, and lifelong opportunities for children.
The High Sheriff of Bedfordshire Ismail Anilmis attended the event and congratulated all those who had organised and were running the event.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to our wonderful authors, supporters, and members for their amazing contributions. We'are already looking forward to next year!
