Tickets for Graham Norton’s West Cork Lit Fest appearance will be sold in pods

By Katie Mythen-Lynch July 6, 2021July 6, 2021

Gather your favourite bookish folk.

Graham Norton will be back in Bantry later this month to discuss his latest novel Home Stretch at the West Cork Literary Festival 2021 and tickets are guaranteed to disappear fast.

The beloved local TV presenter and novelist will meet his adoring fans at an outdoor event in a marquee set in the glorious gardens of Bantry House at 3pm on Monday, July 12th, 2021.

Limited tickets (€20 each) will go on sale in pods of six on July 7th at 12 noon, call 027 527 88 to book.

“We have a very small capacity for this and all of our outdoor events and so in order to allow as many people as possible to attend we are selling tickets in pods of six.” a festival spokesperson explained.

“If we were to sell individual tickets we would need to leave a two-metre space between every guest.”

Graham will be joining an exciting line-up of poets, screenwriters, established and debutant novelists, and podcasters set to take part in this year’s festival, which will include both online events, which can be enjoyed from anywhere in the world, and a selection of live outdoor events.

Monday 12 July @BantryHouse LIVE OUTDOORS: John Connell 12pm and Louise Kennedy & Stephen Walsh 6pm. Limited tickets in pods of 2 on sale Tues at noon ❤️Plus Graham Norton 3pm – limited tickets in pods of 6 on sale this Wed at noon. Phone sales only +3532752788.
