The Tolkien Seminar is the one gathering on this page that is a conference rather than a festival. It has run since 2004 at changing universities and on a changing theme, and it is open to anyone — but the audience it is built for is a scholarly one.
The theme for 2026 is the environment in Tolkien's work, and the venue matches it. The papers are collected in Hither Shore, the society's yearbook — which makes the seminar the point where German Tolkien scholarship is published rather than merely discussed.
