Miami Book Fair
The Miami Book Fair celebrates its 42nd edition this year, making it the longest-running literary festival in the United States. Expect the regular mix of riveting author presentations, mind-expanding conversations and even more innovative ways to honor the written word. The annual street festival is slated to take place from November 16 through 23 along the Miami-Dade College downtown campus. Luminaries like Daniel Silva, Kenny Chesney, Padma Lakshmi, Larry Charles, Art Spiegelman and Edwidge Danticat are slated to headline. Individual readings and events are ticketed, but the festivities kick off with a free, high-energy block party under the stars, complete with live music, food from local vendors and hundreds of books for sale.
