Fiction Fest UK 2027

Welcome to FFUK27 🧡

Step into a world of stories, and discover new ones at Fiction Fest UK: Manchester’s biggest multi-genre book event, taking place in 2027 at Bridgewater Hall.

Whether you’re a lifelong reader, a writer, or simply curious about the power of storytelling, Fiction Fest UK is your place to connect, interact, and be inspired. We founded this event on the idea that the bookish community can come together, no matter our bookish habits, and bond over the simple act of reading.

Across a weekend, there will be panels, signings, interactive sessions and plenty of new book besties to meet, we’re bringing together authors, publishers, podcasters and book lovers from every corner of the literary world - from fantasy and crime to romance, sci-fi, historical, horror, and everything in between.

Join us in Manchester for an event that celebrates all stories, all voices, and all genres.

Event tickets available via Ticket Tailor.
