Roger Ackroyd Day – A Global Celebration
Thursday 17 September
Join us for a very special celebration marking the 100th anniversary of one of Agatha Christie's greatest masterpieces, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd.
The novel's pivotal events take place on 17 September, making this the perfect day to honour a book that continues to surprise and delight readers around the world a century after its publication.
As part of the celebrations, we're inviting visitors from across the globe to bring a copy of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd in their own language and join us for a special group photograph.
Last year, readers from 32 different countries took part, and we'd love to beat that record this year! Whether you're travelling from across the world or just down the road, we'd be delighted for you to join us.
Afterwards, you're welcome to take your book home with you or, if you'd prefer, donate it to help us build our International Agatha Christie Library, a growing collection that we hope will continue to expand at future festivals.
📍 Meet at 1.00pm in the Murder Mystery Marquee (outside the Spanish Barn at Torre Abbey).
Bring your book, celebrate an extraordinary novel, and become part of Agatha Christie Festival history!
We look forward to seeing all of the different covers.
