Guaranteed to be a highlight of this year’s festival, we’re thrilled to welcome Gubsmacked, Scotland’s funniest poetry night, to Paisley Book Festival for a speical one-off event. Presented by three iconic Scottish poets – Leyla Josephine, Iona Lee and Colin Bramwell – Flyte Nyte is a no holds barred poetry punch-up, reimagining the courtly medieval Scottish tradition of Flyting: a poetry rap battle in all but name. Come and see six of Scotland’s most exciting poets throw serious shade. Line up to be confirmed.
