Join us for the 23rd annual Southwest Florida Reading Festival!

The Southwest Florida Reading Festival is a free, all-ages event that is loved by attendees who come back year after year. Lee County Library System is thrilled to hold this outdoor celebration for the community where fans have the opportunity to listen to and meet a diverse line-up of bestselling authors, participate in contests and activities and find the latest and greatest in books and technology. In addition to author appearances and autographing sessions, there will be food truck vendors, storytelling programs, arts and crafts, youth writing contests and a free book for every child and teen.

The lineup of over 20 award-winning authors scheduled to attend this year includes talented writers such as adult authors Alafair Burke, J.A. Jance, Nathaniel Philbrick, Kate Quinn and Brad Taylor, along with youth and teen authors including Miranda Paul, Stacy McAnulty, Jenna Evans Welch, Alex Willan and Adrienne Young.
