With cautious optimism, we are delighted to announce a special event on 17 Sept 2020 to celebrate Richard Osman’s debut crime series, The Thursday Murder Club, and the publication of Mark Billingham’s twentieth thriller, Cry Baby.

On 16 March, we had to make the inevitable decision to cancel ChipLitFest 2020. We are heartbroken not to be able to deliver the Festival, we had been so excited about the fantastic range of brilliant authors, speakers and illustrators due in Chipping Norton all of whom we continue to feature here but we couldn’t risk the health of those authors, the audience, the volunteers and the community.

The Chipping Norton Theatre Box Office will contact all ticket holders about refunds. They have been working through all their events since they had to close the Theatre and expect to be contacting Festival customers by phone or email from 26 March.
