This short event offers a warm welcome to our passholders, visitors from further afield and anyone eager to explore the rich variety of this year’s Festival. Katy Hamilton draws out some of the highlights, themes and unexpected gems of the programme, in conversation with our Artistic Director Sholto Kynoch. Following our Scandinavian opening, it’s surely the only choice to enjoy a cinnamon bun and a coffee during this introduction to the week ahead.
