Hyderabad Literary Festival or HLF is a literary festival held in Hyderabad, Telangana, India.[1] It is a 3-day annual event that celebrates creativity in all its forms. Every year has a guest nation, and an Indian language in focus.

The Festival has emerged as an important event in the cultural calendar of the country[2] representing, as it does, the rich and cosmopolitan ethos of the twin cities of Hyderabad and Secunderabad, as well as the vibrant culture of the modern Cyberabad. HLF is a Festival for All. Its programme includes conversations with authors, readings, discussion panels, workshops, book launches, cultural programmes, and events for college students and school children.

Hyderabad Literary Festival is organized by Hyderabad Literary Trust in association with the Department of Tourism, Government of Telangana, and with the support of several academic, literary, cultural organizations and publishing houses.
