Word Vancouver is a free annual literary arts festival. This year our festival will be virtually running in September with special events leading up to the festival. Our mission at Word is to foster connectivity, inclusivity, inspiration and to bring the joy of the written word.
Since 1995 The Vancouver Book and Magazine Fair Society has produced Word Vancouver (forrmerly The Word On The Street Vancouver), the primary literary festival for Western Canadian book lovers and literacy enthusiasts. In 2013 the festival rebranded as Word Vancouver.
The Vancouver Book and Magazine Fair Society strives to promote literacy by bringing the literature of Canadian, and particularly British Columbian, artists to as broad an audience as possible. Our goal is to attract people of all ages and backgrounds to a free festival in which each event is at once educational and entertaining.
