Irvine Welsh returns to WoWFEST for a no-holds-barred celebration of 30 years of Trainspotting and its cast of outcasts – Renton, Spud, Sick Boy and Begbie.
Trainspotting quickly gained a cult following – which exploded across the world when Danny Boyle’s film of the same name hit the big screen. It left an inedible mark on popular culture and fiction and still holds us in its grip today. Three decades on, with over a million copies sold in the UK alone and translated into more than 30 languages, join WoW to talk all things Trainspotting and more, including Irvine’s latest book, The Long Knives.
Irvine will be in conversation with Peter Hooton, frontman of the acclaimed Liverpool Band The Farm and co-founder of legendary fanzine The End.
