The Texas Book Festival will take place October 23 through October 31 as a hybrid event. Starting Monday, October 23, virtual sessions will lead up to the Festival Weekend on the grounds of the Texas State Capitol and along Congress Avenue in downtown Austin. The Festival will include a robust, diverse lineup of established, emerging, and debut literary talent for readers of all ages.

All attendees can attend sessions in our outdoor tents and are welcome to visit the in-person and virtual Exhibitor Marketplace, which features book publishers both big and small, university presses, booksellers, independent authors, and an array of items for the literary shopper.

This year, book enthusiasts can look forward to the return of so many things they love about the Festival–a terrific author lineup, timely and thoughtful panel topics, a Saturday evening Lit Crawl, and more. Stay tuned for more announcements coming soon! Read the full press release.
