Uniting readers of every age to celebrate the written and spoken word, the annual London Literature Festival presents talks, readings, discussions and conversations with prestigious authors, rising literary stars, leading cultural observers and those making waves in written and spoken word.
Global superstar and the founder of the Service95 Book Club, DUA LIPA, is the curator of this year's festival. As curator, she will curate a series of events across the festival's opening weekend (Sat 24 and Sun 26 Oct), as well as further literary events across the festival with her Service95 Book Club.
Dua Lipa’s curatorship takes place in partnership with her Service95 Book Club, and will include a mix of Dua’s favourite writers – both established and emerging – along with an array of free programming.
Full line-up and dates for ticket releases will be announced in Summer 2026.
