World Literature on the Isle of Møn is a celebration of great literature. It is a small festival, which has taken place once or twice a year since 2000 as a concentrated weekend event in beautiful rural surroundings on the island Møn, 100 km south of Copenhagen, Denmark.

The festival was awarded the 2016 Cultural Prize from Lollands Bank and the municipality of Vordingborg for “creating an ambitious event focusing on a sublime and unique meeting between author and audience.”
