Bantry Bookshop

Bantry Bookshop is a charming independent bookshop on William Street, close to the centre of our West Cork town, and it’s packed with a wide range of local, Irish and international books, including the ones featured in this year’s West Cork Literary Festival.

The bookshop serves as a literary festival micro-venue – it’s a a wonderful place to encounter emerging voices and meet local West Cork writers. The bookshop also pops up at other literary festival venues so you can buy books at our other events around the town.
