UEA Live returns this autumn. The full line-up will be announced in early September.

Be the first to know about tickets and keep up-to-date on our future events through our mailing list, our social media accounts – Instagram, Facebook and X @UEALitFest, and here on our website. 

In the meantime we celebrate 10 years of UEA’s Creative Writing Crime Fiction MA as Noirwich welcomes Nigerian-British novelist and writer Oyinkan Braithwaite and global selling thriller writer Lee Child.

Later in the season, Paula Hawkins will launch the Norwich Book Festival to talk about her latest psychological thriller, The Blue Hour. This is closely followed by beloved children’s writer Michael Morpurgo who joins us in partnership with the Autumn Festival of Norfolk for an exclusive Norwich appearance.
