The festivals are taking place across the town throughout the entirety of next month, offering mostly free attractions for all age groups.
Alix Sheppard, who co-founded Brightlingsea WinterFest with Dave Griffiths in 2015, said: “Everyone can look forward to a whole array of events.
“We are delighted to be linking with the new Brightlingsea Literary Festival and their events will bring another aspect to the creative life and community spirit in the town.”
The Literary Festival is the brainchild of BrightWords founder Helena Nwaokolo and leading member Ruth Loten.
