The Bo­cas Lit Fest is set to re­turn this May for its high­ly an­tic­i­pat­ed 15th edi­tion, un­der the cap­ti­vat­ing theme “Al­ways Com­ing Home”. As the largest lit­er­ary event in the An­glo­phone Caribbean, T&T’s pre­mier cel­e­bra­tion of books, writ­ers, and ideas promis­es a dy­nam­ic and di­verse pro­gramme.

Tak­ing place from May 1 to 4, the 2025 fes­ti­val will fea­ture a rich line-up of 50 events tai­lored for adults, teens, and chil­dren, with over 100 renowned writ­ers, speak­ers, and per­form­ers. Host­ed at the Na­tion­al Li­brary in Port-of-Spain, the fes­ti­val will al­so of­fer satel­lite events at var­i­ous venues across the city, en­sur­ing a tru­ly im­mer­sive lit­er­ary ex­pe­ri­ence for all.

“We of­ten de­scribe our an­nu­al fes­ti­val as a kind of home­com­ing for Caribbean writ­ers and read­ers,” said Bo­ca’s Fes­ti­val and Pro­gramme Di­rec­tor Nicholas Laugh­lin.
