Authors Joining Us in 2026

As the Rolling Sun Book Festival marks its 16th year, we’re proud to celebrate stories and ideas in the stunning setting of Westport, where sea, sky, and landscape have long inspired creativity. This year’s festival will welcome an exceptional line-up of authors—award-winning writers, fresh new voices, and literary talents from near and far—for a weekend of readings, conversations, and cultural connection on Ireland’s wild west coast.
