About

Gloucester Storytelling Café presents a day-long celebration of storytelling for the whole family! With a free storytelling workshop for children at 10:30am (suitable for ages 7-14) and a free workshop for adults at 2pm, there's something for all ages.

The event culminates in the Bardic Chair Story Slam at 7pm (£5 on the door) where local yarn-spinners compete to see who holds the Bardic Chair of Gloucester for the next year!
