The du Maurier Fowey Literary Festival 2025 begins today, Friday 9th May
Mad Dog Mcrea
The du Maurier Fowey Literary Festival 2025 takes place from Friday 9th May to Saturday 17th May, beginning this evening with music from Mad Dog Mcrea in the Parish Church at 8pm.
From Saturday 10th May, there will be a full day of events every day until Saturday 17th May. Events will include walks, reading groups, talks, music, a quiz, and much more. During the week, the Fowey Art Trail will take place from Saturday 10th to Saturday 17th May 2025 and the Secret Gardens, on Friday 16th and Saturday 17th May 2025.
During the week, the Royal Fowey Yacht Club will be open for coffee and cake, teas, light snacks and meals. At the Yacht Club, you will also find the Waterstones Festival Bookshop and the Festival Box Office, where you can buy your tickets and ask any questions that you may have.
There will also be a sale of second-hand books, some of which are very hard to find and some that are rather special. The book sale will be beside the Box Office in the Yacht Club. There are some lovely editions of Daphne du Maurier’s books, and some beautiful books about Fowey and Cornwall. Do go along and have a look, as there is bound to be something that you would like to buy for yourself or as a present for someone else.
The trustees of the festival extend a warm welcome to local people and visitors to Fowey. We hope you have a wonderful festival week.
