About This Event

Coorie In With A Book will be hosted at Leith Community Croft on 13 December 2026. This event celebrates the Icelandic tradition of giving books on Christmas Eve, featuring local writers and a cozy atmosphere.

In Iceland on Christmas Eve, people give each other books and then curl up to read with a hot chocolate. This tradition of Jólabókaflóð (yolow-bloka-flowth) has inspired this wee coorie-in at the croft. Meet award-winning local writers and hear about their books. The cafe will be selling hot chocolate, mulled wine and marshmallows to toast at the firepit. Books will be on sale at exclusive event prices and gift wrap will be available for a donation to the croft. Family-friendly. Please bring any new or nearly new children's books you would like to donate.
