We are thrilled to welcome Waterstones Grimsby to Litfest26. Waterstones Grimsby is proud to support and celebrate the power of storytelling at this year’s writing festival. As the town’s dedicated bookshop, they champion writers at every stage – from debut novelists to established voices – and offer a thoughtfully curated range of fiction, non-fiction, poetry and children’s literature. Come and chat to the area's leading booksellers and their pivotal role at the other end of the publishing spectrum. 

With knowledgeable booksellers passionate about connecting readers and writers, the Grimsby store in Freshney Place is a welcoming space for literary discovery, discussion and inspiration. Through author events, signings and community partnerships, Waterstones Grimsby plays an active role in nurturing local talent and fostering a vibrant reading and writing culture in the heart of the town.

For the Festival Finale, Waterstones Grimsby will be facilitating a book signing drop-in with Dr Zoe Marriott, author of the recently-published The Moonlit Maze.
