The Brooklyn Book Festival is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2025. The Festival was founded in 2006 to address the need for a free, major literary event that embraced the diverse constituencies of New York City. It is now NYC's largest free literary event, having grown from a one-day Festival in Downtown Brooklyn to a 9-day literary celebration with events throughout the city.

The Festival is known for fostering creative dialogue among authors, presenting new literary voices as well as established national and international authors, and for serving the literary community by providing a highly visible platform for the work of writers and publishers. The Festival traditionally has attracted more than 40,000 book lovers from across the city to its nine days of literary events.

Support from the community is more important than ever and much appreciated!
