Our popular Cafe Crawl makes a comeback this year, taking place on Saturday, October 10 in three of Rochester’s top eateries.

Ideally, we’re looking to have groups of at least three pop-up performers in each cafe during each hourly session (see the image above). We have some hardy veterans doing all three sessions but there are slots available for anyone who’d like to do just one or two slots (or maybe you like marathons and fancy a shot at all three?).

All types of performer are welcome (poetry, prose, music etc), including those looking to gain more experience in public, as this event is very informal and convivial, with a gentle audience (including families, so you know, no *&*^%$ type stuffage!). Please note though, there will be no PA system so you need to have a loud, clear voice.

Drop us a line at rochesterlitfest@gmail.com or give Jaye a call on 07904 643770 if you’d like to take part.
