✨📚 THE GRAND FESTIVAL OF STORIES 📚✨Celebrating 400 Years of Scarborough through books, creativity & community
Saturday 28th November 2026
10am–4pm
📍 The Grand Hotel, Scarborough
Something rather magical is coming to Scarborough… ❤️
We are absolutely thrilled to officially announce The Grand Festival of Stories … a very special celebration bringing together authors, makers, artists, creatives and storytellers under one grand roof for a day filled with imagination, inspiration, conversation and creativity.
Created by Coastal Chapters and Lilly’s Treasures, and proudly supporting Saint Catherine’s, this is so much more than a book festival.
It’s a celebration of stories in all their wonderful forms - the stories we read, the stories we write, the stories behind the things we create and, most importantly, the stories that bring our community together. 💕📖
And what better time to celebrate than during Scarborough’s 400th anniversary celebrations?
Throughout the day, you can expect a fabulous mix of:
📚 Authors & books
🎨 Artists & creatives
🧵 Makers & handmade treasures
🎤 Talks & conversations
✍️ Workshops & creative activities
❤️ Stories, inspiration & community
Whether you’re a lifelong bookworm, an aspiring author, a creative soul, a lover of handmade treasures, or simply someone who enjoys discovering something new, The Grand Festival of Stories is for you.
And there’s something especially lovely about bringing all these wonderful people together in The Grand Hotel for one very special day - celebrating not only the stories on our bookshelves, but the incredible people and creativity within our community. ✨
Most importantly, we’ll be doing it while raising awareness and support for Saint Catherine’s, an organisation that means so much to our local community. 💙
So…
📣 SAVE THE DATE!
