It looks really good. Perhaps better organised than CrimeFest, which is over a month earlier but they still haven't got a programme together at this level of detail. I wish the timing of Harrogate was better...
Maxine, Crimefest is to run as Left Coast Crime is organised, I believe - which the organisers of Crimefest brought to the UK in 2006(?). Harrogate runs with one event per time slot, but LCC runs with three strands and thus a choice of three events per time slot. Should Crimefest be the same, as I think it will be, this is more complicated and requires more organisation.
For me, I'm waiting to see the Crimefest programme to decide how to book, along with a couple of other factors to consider. The author "names" for Crimefest look good, but I'm just not sure if I can do the entire weekend or just the pure weekend element.
Karen, I recommend you ring the hotel to confirm your booking with your booking reference to hand (they need that for online agency bookings) - just to be sure.
All best, both,

Thanks cfr. I've just checked with the hotel and they've got me listed!!
At least there is also a day ticket approach for crimefest. The prices have yet to be revealed for Harrogate, except for the package...
