The Word
Aspects Festival Returns to Bangor Aspects Festival returns to Bangor for 2022 with a full programme of events celebrating Irish writing! Renowned for showcasing wellknown authors as well as local and emerging talent, the Festival offers 30 events celebrating history, politics, sport, crime-writing and poetry as well as book launches and more. Author Malachi O’Doherty makes a return to Aspects to discuss his latest book and the Festival is delighted to welcome back best-selling authors Martina Devlin and Jan Carson to talk about their latest works. Jan and Martina will also be facilitating some exciting writing workshops aimed at aspiring writers. A very special Aspects extra event will take place on 9 October. Just after the main programme, Phil Coulter will appear at Bangor Castle to talk about his song-writing, his memoir and his life. The Festival will run from 22 September to 2 October at various venues around Bangor. The full programme and tickets are available on the Festival website: www.aspectsfestival.com
