Wansbroughs sponsors Marlborough LitFest for third consecutive year

Wansbroughs, is proud to announce its continued sponsorship of the Marlborough LitFest, reaffirming its ongoing commitment to arts, culture and community in Wiltshire.

The firm will be sponsoring two key author events this year: the first by broadcaster and author, John Suchet on 25 September and the second by actor and writer, Rupert Everett on 27 September.

Renowned for his regular broadcasts on Classic FM and his expertise in classical music, acclaimed author John Suchet will take the stage to discuss his most recent book, In Search of Beethoven: A Personal Journey. In this highly anticipated work, Suchet reflects on his life and career as a broadcaster and foreign correspondent, and the impact Beethoven’s music has had on him throughout his journey.

On Saturday evening, British actor and writer Rupert Everett will present his latest work, The American No – an exhilarating and witty collection of stories inspired by real encounters of love and loss, hope and rejection.

This year’s LitFest will take place from 25 to 28 September 2025, and tickets will go on general sale in July. The festival celebrates the best of writing and books, with more than 40 events for all ages planned across the historic town.

Sarah Alexander, Partner at Wansbroughs, said:

“As a longstanding supporter, Wansbroughs is thrilled to once again support this flourishing literature event.  Each year brings new energy and a broader reach, and we’re extremely proud to play a part in its ongoing success.”

Mary-Vere Parr, Marlborough LitFest Chair, said:

“We’re so grateful for the support and enthusiasm for Marlborough LitFest shown by Wansbroughs over the last three years. It’s such a pleasure to work with an organisation that values and enjoys what we bring to Marlborough and the surrounding area through the festival and associated outreach.”
