What’s On
All public events will be listed here on the programme section of the website. We’d recommend that you also join our mailing list and follow us on Facebook and Instagram @BookPaisley to be kept up to date on events or changes to the performance schedule.
Accessible Seating Requests
If you have any accessible seating requirements please contact the box office by emailing OneRen_boxoffice@renfrewshire.gov.uk once you have purchased your tickets. Due to limited audience spaces we cannot guarantee that all requests can be met. Please also be aware that we are unable to reserve seats for others in your group because we need to ensure the most accessible seats are available for those who need them most. More information on our Festival’s access information is available here.
Donations
In 2025 many of the events during the Paisley Book Festival is ‘pay what you can’ – we are breaking barriers and opening doors to people that are often financially excluded from accessing the arts and cultural events. OneRen can only do this by raising funds so we kindly ask when you make your booking, if you are able to, please make a donation to keep these events open to all. Your support makes a huge difference, thank you.
Pay what you can (PWYC)
Paisley Book festival offers a Pay What You Can ticket option for a broad range of events. This is to increase the accessibility and affordability of the festival. Please select whatever price you can pay at the point of booking.
Concessions
Paisley Book Festival offers a concession ticket for the key headliner events. Concession tickets are available for Under 16’s/Students/Young Scot cardholders/Senior Citizens/Unemployed/Persons with a disability (and carers/friends escorting a customer to a performance)
Family Day
All of our Family Day events are free and ticketed.
Drop in on the day may be possible subject to availability but we recommend booking a ticket to guarantee a place at the events and avoid disappointment.
