The Gujarat Literature Festival (abbreviated as GLF), also known as Gujarati Sahitya Mahotsav, is a literary festival which takes place annually in the Indian city Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The festival is held generally in December–January.
The main aim of the festival is to promote and popularize Gujarati literature through the method of debates, discussions, and workshops. The festival was founded by Shyam Parekh, Samkit Shah, and Jumana Shah. Other members of the festival includes Paras Jha, filmmaker Abhishek Jain, writer Raam Mori, and poet Rajendra Patel. Started with philosophy that literature is not bound between the covers of book, GLF brings together multiple forms of narratives including theatre, screenplay, documentary films, music, journalism, social media, and oral tradition.
