Welcome to the Friends of the Emirates Airline Festival of Literature online

Emirates Airline Festival of Literature is delighted to announce the launch of “Friends of the Festival” for 2010. Becoming a Friend of the Festival not only entitles you to some great benefits but also provides an annual source of funds which contributes to the development of our literary, education, workshop and free community fringe programmes.

“ By joining the Friends scheme, members play a valuable part in enabling the Festival to fulfill its vision to present an engaging and entertaining international literary programme at outstanding value at our unique venue. Friends also provide valuable feedback about our activities and what we do.”
Isobel Abulhoul, Festival Director.
