For the first time, Literature Festival attendees can enjoy a totally new activation which is completely free – VOICEBOX. The programme runs for 10 days and all the content will also be shown on the Cheltenham Festivals YouTube channel. Check out the new instagram channel and tiktok too - @voicebox_
A carefully curated culture hub, VOICEBOX will bring youth voices to the forefront through a completely free programme of talks, workshops, panels, DJ sets and more. VOICEBOX will be home to unforgettable experiences: shining a light on the topics and trends that matter to young adults, events will feature the best established and emerging local and national young writers, artists and creatives. Digital audiences will be encouraged to join in the conversation through the Festival’s social channels, continuing discussion and debate beyond the 10-day event.
