Cancellation Policy (Please read carefully.)
After you have paid for the workshop, should you have to cancel for any reason, we will exercise our best efforts to find a participant to replace you. If we can do so, we will refund your tuition payment. If we cannot replace you, we will not refund your tuition payment. The later the cancellation date, the more difficult it is for staff to find a qualified participant. Though we do recognize that emergencies happen, and we will do our best to help you, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to replace you in the event of a cancellation.
Mobility Requirements: Most of the venues have wheelchair access but not all. If you have limited mobility every effort will be made to accommodate you, but best chance is through an early booking.
Your workshop place will be secured only after full payment. Every effort will be made to make sure that the programme proceeds as advertised but the Munster Literature Centre accepts no responsibility for changes made due to circumstances beyond our control. Refunds will be given only if a workshop is cancelled.
All workshop participants will be offered a 50% discount on festival reading tickets which go on sale in late July. Participants with booked places will be informed in early September of exact venue. Any other relevant requirements such as reading materials or submitted work (as indicated in some workshop descriptions) will be communicated to you in good time.
As workshops sell out notification of such will be posted on this page.
