The Altrincham Festival of Storytelling (in-development)
The Altrincham Festival of Storytelling is a community-focused cultural project developed by the Alan Forrest Smith Literary Foundation. The festival celebrates storytelling in all its forms — spoken word, theatre, literature, and lived experience — with a focus on showcasing the town’s creative talent.
Currently in development, the festival is building programming, creative content, and partnerships to create a unique cultural moment in Altrincham. Conversations with creative collaborators continue to shape the festival’s vision, supporting storytelling that uncovers and celebrates the creativity already thriving in Altrincham. Updates will be shared as the details progress.
The Altrincham Festival of Storytelling draws inspiration from the work and ideas of Alan Forrest Smith. Learn More.
