Tucson Festival of Books

2026 Presenting Author Schedule!

The Presenting Author Schedule is ready!  View our offerings and make a personalized list of sessions you'd like to see. Fast Pass events are identified with a small ticket icon in the upper right corner.

When attending author events, bring a clear bag to avoid entry delays while adhering to the university's Clear Bag Policy.  

Allow a little extra time:  With an increase in security, screenings may take extra time depending on crowds, so plan to arrive early to avoid missing your session.

Fast Passes for sessions in Ballroom, Gallagher Theater, Integrated Learning Center 120, Koffler 204 will be available to Friends of the Festival March 4 and Public March 9.
