Falmouth Book Festival is back!
​​

From 18–25 October, Falmouth will once again welcome an extraordinary gathering of writers, thinkers, performers and storytellers.

 

We're now able to reveal the first names joining us for 2026, including Ruby Wax, Charlie Higson, Esther Freud, Satish Kumar, Patrick Gale, Joelle Taylor, Luke Harding, Natasha Carthew, Cathy Rentzenbrink, Emily Cunningham MBE, Peter Moore, Gillian Burke, Luke Thompson and Philip Marsden.

 

This is a first glimpse rather than the full programme. More authors and events will be announced over the coming weeks. The new festival programme and ticket booking aren’t live just yet, but they will be very soon.

 

For now, save the dates: 18–25 October 2026.
