INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS:
Authors must be registered for a full CrimeFest pass to qualify for a panel slot and must be published in print in the English language by a UK based commercial publisher.
Authors attending CrimeFest from abroad will be offered two panels. The organisers aim—but cannot guarantee—to offer debut authors two panels.
Translated authors commercially published in print in the UK and in the English language are welcome and are eligible for panels. (Please contact the CrimeFest organisers first if a translator might be required.)
Authors will be offered a place on one or more panels anytime between Thursday and Sunday afternoon (9-12 May, 2024).
Authors with recent publications (June 2024/July 2025) receive priority, but the aim is to give everyone at least one panel. Where possible, authors with two panels will be scheduled on consecutive days.
Panel suggestions are welcome but cannot be guaranteed to be used in the programme.
For more information on moderating, visit the Moderator’s Manifesto.
