Texas Independent Bookstore Day

We're celebrating the first ever Texas Independent Bookstore Day!

This is a THANK YOU for you, our customers, for shopping with us all year round, and we'll have some activities, prizes, and giveaways.

Things kick off with storytime at 11:30am, a summer reading wrap up party featuring BookSpring and Austin Allies, and continue into the afternoon!

We'll have a scavenger hunt throughout the store with giveaways for completion, a contest to guess how many books are on our shelves with a grand prize of tickets to see Fun Home at the Long Center, and a bookmark contest to create a new design for us to use in the store!

Plus, what's a party without some cake!

How Our Events Work

BookPeople is proud to host over 300 events every year. Our events are free and open to the public, unless otherwise stated.

To get a book signed at one of our events, a copy of the event book must be purchased from BookPeople. By purchasing a book from BookPeople, you are not only supporting a local, independent business, but you are also showing publishers that they should continue sending authors to BookPeople. Think of it this way: you wouldn't bring your own beer to a bar, would you?

For events where we anticipate large crowds, wristbands may be required in order to join the signing line. Occasionally we may also ticket events. In both cases, information as to when wristbands/tickets are available will be found on that event's specific page on our website.
