Torquay, 12 September: The 2022 International Agatha Christie Festival opened on Saturday, 10 September. At a time of national mourning, the Festival is running – respectfully – across 8 full days of events and performances.

The Trustees and staff of Agatha Christie Festival Limited are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Her Majesty The Queen.

From Friday 29 July anyone who buys a ticket (excluding tickets to free events) for this year’s International Agatha Christie Festival can enter a draw to win one of five limited edition Agatha Christie T-Shirts (Small, Medium or Large) RRP £28.00 created by our friends and partners The Women’s Prize for Fiction Trust.

The Bookery, our pop up independent bookseller at the Festival, has a great offer for those who have bought tickets for Lucy Worsley’s talk on the opening evening of this year’s Festival.

We’re delighted to bring you the full line-up of events for this year’s Festival which runs from Saturday 10th through Saturday 17th September at venues cross the English Riviera, South Devon, UK.
