The 2026 Windham-Campbell Festival is now online!

If you missed the Windham-Campbell Prizes Festival, or want to rewatch your favorite events, the recordings are now online!

The brilliant Yiyun Li, herself a 2020 Windham-Campbell Prize recipient, kicked off the week with a keynote lecture on how one might approach the past as a writer.

From there, you can browse the archive freely: Lucy Sante examined The Velvet Underground and other radical subcultures of the 1960s, there are staged readings of plays by our drama prize recipients, Christina Anderson and S. Shakthidharan, and a conversation between poets Joyelle McSweeney and Karen Solie on the intersection of poetry and climate, both environmental and cultural.

Everything is free to watch, whenever you like.
