At last! The Quais du Polar festival is delighted to present the official list of authors for the 2026 edition. on the theme of Story seekers, science and fiction.
Crime novelists, often guided by facts, investigations and rigorous research, share with scientists a taste for exploration, doubt and truth. By bringing together stories and knowledge, literary research and scientific investigations, Quais du Polar reaffirms the power of stories to shed light on the world of yesterday, today and tomorrow.
A few more names will be announced in January 2026. The full festival program (conferences, book signings, Grande Enquête, screenings, events in museums, libraries and partner organisations, etc.) will be released in early March 2026.
