That's What She Said - Women's Words
For Books’ Sake present a night of spoken word entirely written and performed by women! A wide range of speakers and topics, from slam poetry to storytelling, contemporary political thought to comedy, bringing women’s voices to the forefront, giving a platform to writers and performers you’ll love.

We’re proud both to celebrate the poetry of writers from the East Riding of Yorkshire and to bring to our region some of the finest poets from around the UK and beyond.
'Our short, but very sweet, seaside festival has a strong focus on poetry by women and voices from beyond the UK. And in between all our brilliant readings, performances, workshops and discussions, there’s plenty of time to hang out with the rest of our growing festival family.
In our eighth year, we’re moving into the heart of Bridlington for the first time. We believe this will allow us to build an ever-closer relationship with the people who live, study and work here, while we continue to welcome our guests from further afield.
