StAnza, Scotland’s International Poetry Festival takes place each March in St Andrews. Since its inception in 1997, StAnza has grown considerably in both scale and reputation – we are well established as one of the UK’s leading poetry events. Scotland’s first regular festival dedicated to poetry, we are consistently international in outlook. We present a series of diverse readings in English and other languages, and also feature a strong programme of other poetry related events including contemporary drama, music, dance, visual art, film and photography.
