Dear Friends and Supporters of Sidney LitFest,

It is with great disappointment that we announce our decision to cancel the April 17, 2020 Spring Reading Series event featuring Bob McDonald. This has become necessary in light of what is now known about COVID-19 and the importance of protecting the health of our audience and authors. The SHOAL Centre has also informed us that their facility will be closed until further notice.

We hope to reschedule this event and will let you know about the new date as soon as possible. Your tickets will be honoured at that time.

If, however, you prefer, refunds for single tickets can be obtained at Tanner’s Books by returning the unused ticket. Holders of the series package, which offered three readings for the price of two, can receive a refund for $7 at Tanner’s Books by returning the unused portion of the booklet. Attendees who purchased tickets through Eventbrite can receive their refund by contacting us at sidneyliteraryfestival@gmail.com

We greatly regret the cancellation of what would certainly have been an outstanding event. We are grateful to all of you for your support, and we look forward to working toward our Festival 2021 goal by offering another reading series in fall 2020.
