The next Ennis Book Club Festival takes place from
5^th - 7^th March 2010

Thank you - to all our authors, speakers, festival goers and volunteers for making the 2009 event a resounding success. Our numbers are growing every year and many of you plan to return next year. Gratitude also to the people of Ennis for the great welcome they extended to all our visitors.

The Ennis Book Club Festival is a wonderful social and literary gathering bringing together book club members and readers from all over Ireland and beyond. Supported by Clare County Library, the festival programme is designed with you, the reader, in mind. Author readings, discussions, workshops and walking tours through the narrow streets and lanes of Ennis are on offer. We have dedicated sessions on how to organise a book club and advice on reading lists. We can also promise you chocolate tastings, events as Gaeilge and an opportunity to compare notes and chat with other Book Club members.
The 2010 programme will be available later in the year.
