The calendar also lists local literary events that are not organised by us. Know of an event that should be listed here? Let us know!

Bridging Borders: The SEA Lit Project
SBC Campus
SBC Campus is the Singapore Book Council's school outreach programme that aims to bring Singapore literature to students and schools.
Open: Singapore Young Writers Lab
All In! Young Writers Festival has been revamped to become Open: Singapore Young Writers Lab, a year-round programme consisting of talks, workshops and mentorships for writers between the ages of 13 and 25.
#BuySingLit
#BuySingLit is an industry-led movement to celebrate stories from Singapore. Advocating ‘Buy Local, Read Our World’, homegrown book publishers, retailers and literary non-profits have come together to encourage more people to discover and embrace Singapore’s literature. Through buying and reading local works, you support the writers who bear witness to our lives, as well as the businesses in our community that deliver these stories to us. Most of all, you will experience the profound joy of unravelling the multi-faceted world around you.
SBC Read-Along Books
The Singapore Book Council proudly presents the SBC Read-Along Books series, an adaptation of three Singaporean children’s picture books into animated videos in Chinese, Malay and Tamil.
