Thanks to the dedicated efforts of District 14 City Councilwoman Odette Ramos and the collaboration of many stakeholders and community members, this year’s festival will shine a light on the immense breadth and depth of Baltimore’s literary scene by hosting more authors, booksellers, and vendors from neighborhoods across the city.

The 2024 Baltimore Book Festival will be held Saturday, September 28–Sunday, September 29, 2024, in and around Waverly Main Street.

Not only will this year be the beloved Baltimore Book Festival’s return, but it will also be its 25th anniversary.
