Presented by The Book Hive
Page Against The Machine
Saturday 23 May, 2.30pm
Norwich Cathedral
The Book Hive’s shared reading event returns! Pick a book, bring a cool drink and turn off your phone for a well-deserved detox read in the beautiful surroundings of Norwich Cathedral cloisters.
In the National Year of Reading 2026, we’re inviting you to ‘Go All In’ — to follow your curiosity and explore any interest through reading, in any format. Books, audiobooks, magazines or online reading all count. If you haven’t joined Page Against the Machine before, this is the perfect time to get involved!
Can’t make it to Norwich Cathedral? You’re still very welcome to take part from wherever you feel most comfortable. Share your reading moment and tag us using #pageagainstthemachine.
Simultaneous events will be taking place across Norwich and in UNESCO Cities of Literature across the world.
