Peter and Norman Florence organized the first Hay Festival in 1988; after many years touring the world with their theatre company, they decided to organize a festival in their home town.
The focus of the festival is on literature and participation: most of the events are 40 minutes conversations between two or three writers, musicians two or film makers – followed by question sessions with the audience. There are also concerts and film premieres. Most of events take place on the festival site, just outside the town, though films are shown at Hay Castle. Prices are very low, only five pounds (E$ 7,33), to encourage people to attend many different shows.
How do you get to Hay-on-Wye? The nearest train station is in Hereford; there are regular bus services form Hereford to Hay.
