Welcome to the summer of 2023
OMAHA BOOK FESTIVAL
July 21-22, 2023
FREE TO READERS
Still accepting authors and vendors! Interest form below:
Celebrating Our Love
for Storytelling
Friday, 1-5 pm
Festival begins! Come into the hotel to meet authors, get books signed, buy copies, or hang out with readers!
Friday, 6-9 pm
Panels, book readings, and hangouts, open to all authors and readers
Saturday, 9 am-12
Second day of the festival! Thanks to our location downtown and the occurrence of the farmer's market, we should get lots of foot traffic!
For Authors:
We'd love to have you as an author at the festival, no matter what genre you write! So far we have authors in poetry, self-help, children's, fantasy, romance, and nonfiction! Tables are 6 ft long, and can be decorated however you like! Feel free to add jars for email sign-ups, host giveaways, give out arcs, or whatever would be best for your business!
Tables are $130 total, or $75 to split with another author (I'll assign you if you don't have one in mind.) That fee secures it your table for both days, and is the only fee!
Location is at a beautiful, historic hotel in the heart of downtown. I am waiting to sign the contract with them until we have all the author commitment needed, but exact location will be shared later.
If you're interested in coming as an author, the interest form is here!
And check out who is going on our Instagram page here!

Where to Stay
You can either stay at the hotel, or at a nearby hotel. I'll update this with options once we sign with our hotel!
Hello
My name is Victoria McCombs
Best-selling author of YA fantasy, with both self-published books and traditionally published ones. Lover of all things warm and cozy, but carries a weakness for the morally gray characters and twists that I couldn't predict. I'm delighted to be throwing Omaha's first annual book festival, and can't wait to meet everyone there!
