A very merry Christmas from Cheltenham Festivals...

A Very Merry Christmas from Cheltenham Festivals...

'Tis just weeks before Christmas, and here at Cheltenham Festivals we're beginning to feel distinctly, well, Festive! To celebrate this jolliest of seasons we asked the stars of this year's Literature Festival to share with us a special Christmas Memory.

Every day of advent we'll be unwrapping a different Christmas Memory for your delight and delectation. And as an extra-special treat, every Festive-Friday we'll be hearing from our Festival Directors and giving away Festive-al prizes galore!

So sit back, grab a mince pie and unwrap a very special Festive-al memory...

2nd December: A Christmas Carol...

And so to day two of our Festive-al Advent Competition.

Identify today's mystery festival star for your chance to win a copy of the suitably festive classic - A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens and a Festival goody bag.

We've been reading A Christmas Carol to get us in the mood for Christmas, and in readiness for the Bonne Maman Big Read book group next week. It's definitely one to cheer even the biggest Scrooge! 

To win, just tell us who today's mystery star is. We asked our mystery Literature Festival star about their favourite books, press play below to hear their answer…

2nd Dec - who said that? by Cheltenham Festivals

The competition is now closed.


UPDATE: the mystery festive-al star was - Jeremy Paxman! You can watch the whole interview from the Literature Festival here...
