Individual Tickets
Purchase individual tickets to Book Festival events here.
Premium Tickets are event tickets that include a book. These tickets can be found as a price level when you select the specific event. Books can be picked up before the Festival by contacting Myla Bell, at the Bookstore during the Festival, or at that specific author event.
NEW this year! Book Bundle + Ticket
Tickets for four of this year’s headlining programs—Mitch Albom, Rabbi Angela Buchdahl, Sarah Hurwitz and Eli Sharabi—are only available to purchase with our new Book Bundle + Ticket option. What does this mean for you? One transaction gets you both the book and ticket for the program.
Please note: The Book Bundle + Ticket is the only ticket option for these four events.
Patrons of the Arts at certain levels receive access to these programs as part of their benefits. Consider becoming a Patron of the Arts and enjoy an array of benefits throughout our 2025-2026 Arts and Ideas season.
Virtual Recordings
Select programs will be available to view virtually via recording with a ticket purchase. The recordings will be available 48 hours after the event and will remain available until the end of 2025.
To purchase those tickets, select the option that says ‘Virtual Recording’ before the program name. Event recordings will be emailed 48 hours following the event to online viewing ticket buyers.
