The University of Iowa is my alma mater and is located in Iowa City, Iowa. The Iowa City Book Festival did not exist during my time spent attending the University of Iowa or I would have gladly attended the festivities.
One of these days, I'd love to return to Iowa City and not only revisit the campus and all my favorite spots around Iowa City, but I'd also love to attend the Iowa City Book Festival.
Below is more information about the Iowa City Book Festival from their website:
WELCOME TO IOWA CITY! The 17th annual Iowa City Book Festival will be held Oct. 5-12, 2025, at locations throughout downtown and beyond. It will showcase a dynamic mix of original events and collaborative programs with partner organizations, all celebrating the power of the written word and the exchange of ideas.
The Iowa City Book Festival is organized by the Iowa City UNESCO City of Literature, a nonprofit 501(c)3 that manages the Iowa City area’s designation as a UNESCO City of Literature. The City of Literature works to advance its mission of celebrating and supporting literature on a local, regional, national, and international level, connecting readers and writers through the power of story.
The line up of events for this year's book festival looks great! Authors, John Scalzi, Patricia Lockwood, Jennifer Fawcett, and Tatiana Schlote-Bonne will be speaking at the Iowa City Book Festival this year. I'd love to hear each of them speak about their new books.
