Whether hearing Sebastian Faulks talk about Birdsong or picking up business tips from the Dragons' Den mogul Duncan Bannatyne appeals, students can save 50 per cent on a huge array of tickets for the Cheltenham Literature Festival 2013.

Taking place from Friday 4 to Sunday 13 October 2013, and spanning talks and events as varied as ‘Life as a Wildlife Photographer’ and ‘Megacities’ to a discussion about ‘James Joyce’s Ulysses’ and an Ivory Coast storytelling of ‘The Old Woman, the Buffalo and the Lion of Manding,’ the choice of discounted tickets on offer really is staggering.

Most Lit Fest events with ticket prices of £10 and under are included in this special offer. Tickets must be booked directly through the telephone box office on 0844 880 8094 for the discount to apply, however.
