When Raymond E. Feist tours, they are announced on the Feistfans-l Mailing List, they are also normally announced in this section shortly after. Please do not ask if Raymond E. Feist can come to your town, as in his own words, 'I have nothing to say about where they send me' (referring to his publishers). If you want him to visit your town, lobby your bookseller to contact the publisher, thats the way it gets done.
The following includes events that have been scheduled, they may have come and gone, but are here for your reference. New, and provisional events, will be added as and when they are known, they will appear towards the top of the list.
Occasionally, although not on a Book Tour, Ray may attend and participate in Other Events. In some cases these may include a book signing.
It is advisable to contact the store or event organisers to verify details such as dates/times, and if there is a requirement to book in advance.
Please do not contact us, to ask for more information on upcoming events shown below. If the information is not already here, then we do not know, and it probably doesn't even exist yet.
