The Conrad Festival is an annual literary festival held in Kraków since 2009. It is organised by the Tygodnik Powszechny Foundation and the Kraków Festival Office and is supported by the Kraków Municipal Government and Poland's Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. It is the largest literary festival in Central Europe[1] and was named after Polish-British novelist Joseph Conrad.
The festival hosts artists from around the world, the representatives of various cultures and worldviews, who create not only literature, but also film, theatre, music and the visual arts. Each year, it accompanies the Kraków Book Fair. Unlike other Polish events that deal mostly with Polish literature, the Conrad Festival is intended to be a festival on an international level.[2] Its many illustrious guests have included: recipients of the Nobel Prize in Literature Herta Müller[3] and Orhan Pamuk,[4] Marjane Satrapi, Amos Oz, Rabih Alameddine, Claude Lanzmann, Yurii Andrukhovych,[5] David Grossman,[6] Paul Auster,[7] László Krasznahorkai,[8] Alberto Manguel,[9] Boris Akunin,[10] Alain Mabanckou, Dubravka Ugrešić,[11] Magdalena Tulli,[12] Andrzej Stasiuk,[13] Jerzy Pilch,[14] and Olga Tokarczuk.[15]
