In 2016 the first-ever UK Indie Lit Fest took place. Founded by Follow This Publishing, its purpose was to promote authors and bring them together to support one another. Year after year the festival grew in numbers and has become an annual event that many return to year after year.

Follow This Publishing's dream was always to promote and showcase more and more independent artists and so in 2020 the UK Indie Lit Fest will become the Indie Fest UK. The new festival will incorporate all aspects enjoyed from previous years whilst branching out to include artists from all creative platforms.
