Telling Tales

From worlds away to nitty gritty reality, Telling Tales is the perfect series for young adult bookworms and genre enthusiasts alike.

Each of these storytelling evenings is inspired by a different genre, bringing your favourite YA superstars together with extraordinary emerging teen writers to send you to worlds far and near. Kick back and expand your imagination with an evening of tall tales crafted especially for you.

Whether you’re an avid YA reader already or are looking to find something brand new, Telling Tales is for you. Join us for these celebrations of community and story.
