After more juggling than a professional Juggler at the National Juggling Convention on World Jugglers' Day 2009, we are proud to give you the Programme for the 2009 Screenwriters' Festival.

This Programme is still subject to change and moving about so keep visiting the website.

Over the four days we have over 80 sessions, scriptbites, speed dating and general script orientated jiggery pokery.


Venue

Unless you have been cowering under your bed for the past few months waiting for the cloud of financial doom and gloom to pass over, you are probably well aware that we are in a brand spanking new venue, The Cheltenham Ladies' College.  Well, it's not brand new, it has been around since 1853 and has a very illustrious history, click here, but it's brand new to us. 

Within the college we will have 9, yes count 'em 9, active venues.  We will be issuing a detailed map of where everything is in the coming weeks but before you go on to the Programme we just want you to know what the venues are and what the capacity for each is.

As a Delegate you will have full access to all of the Festival Sessions and Public Events.  With regards to the Public Events you will need to pick up a ticket for each one which will be available from a specified place during each day. 

You WILL need to pick up the ticket by 5.00pm each day as any unclaimed tickets will be sold to the public at the door.


External Venues

We also have an agreement with The Queens' Hotel, which is just round the corner from the College, that we will have an official after festival drinking hole for anyone to join us after the long, and let me tell you they are long, days of the Festival this year.
