The Literary Summer enchants North Rhine-Westphalia

24. August 2026

For the 27th time, the Literary Summer North Rhine-Westphalia is turning into a stage for stories!

Up until September 16th, readings, poetry slams, and literary walks invite you to dive into different worlds and experience authors from Germany and the Netherlands up close.

If you want to chat about these special moments afterward, you'll find welcoming restaurants nearby that offer the perfect setting – whether for a cozy daytime conversation or a relaxed evening wrap-up.
