Fort Collins Book Fest, hosted by Poudre Libraries (in partnership with local businesses), is almost here!
This year’s celebration of literature, open pages, open minds, features headliners Christine Day, author of several award-winning kids’ books, and Deborah Jackson Taffa, whose debut book Whiskey Tender earned the 2025 Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction longlisted memoir.
Although the official start isn’t until the 7th, literary themed events connected to the Book Fest start today and continue through Monday the 17th. Enjoy speaking events, author panels, crafts, and games.
