Hay Festival 2013

From May 8 to May 10, 2013
Beirut Art Center

The Hay Festival is back in 2013 after its success in the preceding years. The festival includes three days of events celebrating international writers, thinkers and artists in venues across Beirut, extending the reach of the festival.

Hay Festival, all over the world and for more than 25 years, has in essence been a meeting of friends, an opportunity to speak, debate and enjoy exchanging the currency of ideas and stories. Beirut is an exciting place to host a festival, with an extraordinary tradition of hospitality and exchange, a rich cultural scene and one of the most diverse populations of the Middle East.

This year, a fantastic programme awaits you, with a focus on literature, the graphic novel, development and human rights issues.

Please reserve seats to ensure entry. Book online here, or with Beirut Arts Center on 01.397.018.
