The Line-up for Greenbelt 2010 is bold, innovative, daring and exciting. Talks features new faces to Greenbelt alongside established favourites; the Literature programme encompasses poetry, journalism, printed word and new media; Visual Arts work includes installation, participation and craft; and Comedy features puns, wit, satire and whimsy.

With plenty still to be announced across the wider programme (including - of course - a strong programme of Music, from Mainstage headliners to Performance Cafe troubadours), there's something for all ages, all backgrounds; those who want to be challenged and those who just want to be entertained; those with a faith and those with none. It's Greenbelt 2010: The Art of Looking Sideways, and it's going to be brilliant.
