I’d like to say a big thank you to Jeff Taylor from the Suffolk Book League for helping me compile this list. Suffolk Book League has been hosting author events in Ipswich, since 1982.  Upcoming events in 2025 can be found on their website.

As you can see, we’re very lucky to have so much going on in this part of the country.

Hope to see you out and about in 2025.

Best wishes,
