“One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.” ? Jack Kerouac
Jack Kerouac is the iconic writer of the definitive American novel, On the Road, and is known as the father of the Beat Generation.
This two day convention is a must for Kerouac fans bringing together special guests, presentations, displays and entertainment in appreciation of his life and work.
Included in the package is a special tribute evening that features a performance of the festival heading Kerouac play, Beat Surrender, together with a full blown Beat evening of poetry music and entertainment. Dust off that beret and make sure you don't miss out on this international event - right here in Yorkshire.
The event is taking place at the spacious and modern New York Stadium ( home of Rotherham United) - we think Jack would approve.
All proceeds from the event will be donated to research into Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) which is the number one genetic killer of babies.

"On soft Spring nights I'll stand in the yard under the stars - Something good will come out of all things yet - And it will be golden and eternal just like that - There's no need to say another word." - Jack Kerouac, Big Sur
