The Connecticut Book Festival in West Hartford
More than 50 authors from Connecticut gathered under one roof to showcase their books to readers. There's something for everyone, from children's to literary fiction, to sci-fi and fantasy, to horror, and non-fiction--and everything in between.
The admission is free, and parking is free.
Get signed books for yourself or for gifts, at this lively event just around the corner from West Hartford's Blueback Square. We'll have New England Coffee Guy for you to purchase delicious beverages from, plus Ladybug's Breadstuffs, a mobile bakery selling delicious pre-packaged baked goods.
Scavenger hunt for the kiddos (plus prizes), and prizes for the adults too--complete a "passport" by getting author signatures, and you can win a "Blind date with a book" (supplies limited, so come early!).
