The Guernsey Literary Festival has grown in size and popularity in recent years and in 2026, Titan Wealth sponsored one of the keynote events.
Hope I Get Old Before I Die saw veteran writer and broadcaster David Hepworth entertain a packed St James with stories from his career which spans NME in the 70s, Live Aid in the 80s and Instagram today.
David has followed pop music long enough to watch the rebellious figures on his bedroom posters earn knighthoods while still making noisy music. He has written bestselling books on music for over a decade and has rubbed shoulders with legends like Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, Kate Bush and Bob Dylan. In his latest book, he traces the hilarious and fascinating story of how pop music evolved.
'Literary festivals play such an important role in bringing people together,' said Festival Director Claire Allen.
'They create space for discussion and creativity, while giving audiences the opportunity to meet writers and hear directly from them. We’re so grateful to everyone who supported the Festival this year, our audiences, authors, sponsors, patrons, volunteers and organising team. It really is a community effort.'
