The Louisiana Book Festival is a celebration of readers, writers, and their books that is free and open to the public! It's a wonderful opportunity for exhibitors -- authors, booksellers, publishers, scholarly programs, and other literary-related businesses and organizations -- to showcase their products and services to thousands of book lovers. If you are interested in being added to the exhibitor mailing list, please email the Exhibits Coordinator. Please note! Authors who participate as exhibitors are distinct from those who are invited to participate in the festival as featured authors. If you register as an exhibitor, your location and listing will be in the exhibitor section of the website and program. For selection criteria for featured authors, please refer to the Selection Criteria page.
