Festilitt — Franco-English Literary Festival of Parisot

Festilitt 2025: Franco-English Literature in Parisot

The 2025 edition of Festilitt was held in October 2025 in the village of Parisot (82160), confirming the unique place of this bilingual literary festival in the cultural landscape of Tarn-et-Garonne. French-speaking and English-speaking authors gathered for two days of exchanges, readings, and workshops in the warm atmosphere of this small village in Quercy blanc.

The literary cafés facilitated direct and informal encounters between the public and invited writers, in the tradition of openness and accessibility that characterizes Festilitt. The bilingual writing workshops brought together participants of all ages, from young children accompanied by their parents to adults seeking literary expression. The pop-up bookstore allowed visitors to leave with books signed by their authors.

With over 800 visitors over the weekend, the 2025 edition confirmed the attractiveness of this unique festival, which proves that a small rural village can be a vibrant hub of international culture.
