The 2017 Programme is Live!

It’s that time of the year when we unveil the events we’ve spent so long working on! We hope you like it as much as we do.

To view the programme on our website, click here.
We know that many prefer to download the programme and we will have a PDF available for download in the very near future, so please do be patient.

Tickets can be booked through Webtickets, and unless otherwise stipulated, you will need to book for free events as well.
In addition to single tickets, you can also purchase day passes and festival passes through the Webtickets portal.

If you would like further details about the festival or events, please contact Frankie (frankie@openbookfestival.co.za).
