Pärnu Literature Festival 2025

This year is a special one for the Pärnu Literature Festival.

Because this year's festival is already the fifth! - somewhat like a small anniversary.

And this year is the Year of the Book in Estonia - throughout Estonia, and naturally in Pärnu as well.

Therefore, this year's festival includes something that fits the concept of "surprise".

And of course, there's everything that's anticipated and awaited:

In Koidula Park

• - the main stage Look at the Word!, where musicians with thoughts and messages perform,
• - theme areas-stages for Young Reads!, Pärnu Reads!, Thought Reads!, Child Reads!, Language Reads!, Theater Reads!,
• - book market of publishers and writers
• - book flea market open to everyone
•  
• At Koidula Museum
• - meetings with writer families
• and you can commute between the park and the museum with the free Poetry Bus.
•  
• NightHour with a famous (past)writer who once called Pärnu home.

The entire 12-hour program is free for the public, and more detailed information can be found here:
