Those who have been attending St Hilda’s College Crime Fiction Weekend over the many years of its existence know that it is a weekend with a difference. Launched at St Hilda's College in 1994, it offers the crime fiction fans the unique experience of hearing their favourite authors exploring the genre, their own work and the writers who inspired them.
This year the theme is ‘Detecting the Gothic: Tales from the Dark Heart of Crime Fiction and will take place from 8th to 10th August 2025.
Guest of Honour is Val McDermid and featured speakers include Mick Herron, Olivia Isaac-Henry, Anna Mazzola, Stuart Neville, Ambrose Parry, William Ryan, Catherine Ryan Howard, Stuart Turton, Ruth Ware, Catriona Ward and Louise Welsh.
Taking place in the heart of Oxford in a glorious riverside location the St Hilda’s Weekend includes not only the speaker sessions, but a massive Blackwell's shop open on site every day, author signings, prizes and a brimming goodie bag all enjoyed in a relaxed, intimate College atmosphere. Beginning on Friday evening with a dinner and drinks reception, the packed weekend finishes with a traditional lunch on Sunday.
Look out for some mini interviews in the run up to the weekend from the authors taking part.
