WELCOME TO
DERBY POETRY FESTIVAL

Often referred to as DPF, Derby Poetry Festival is a four-day poetry and literature festival held in the centre of Derby. We are dedicated to developing new writing talent in Derby and bring excellent work to the city. DPF has just entered it's fifth year, and 2023 is set to be bigger and better than ever. 

We work with local, national and international talent to build a community of likeminded individuals to create a wonderful literary festival.

BUILDING A COMMUNITY
