Wasatch Back Book Festival: Local Author Portion
Each year, the Park City Library hosts a “Wasatch Back Book Festival”, which includes a special segment dedicated to showcasing local authors who either reside in the Wasatch Back or have written works related to the region. We typically select a group of authors to table, giving the public an opportunity to meet them, learn about their work, and engage in conversation as part of the broader festival programming. This local author showcase takes place alongside a variety of other festival events.
Who Qualifies to Enter
Authors who either live in the Wasatch Back (Summit or Wasatch counties) or are regional authors whose work has a connection to the Wasatch Back.
Where
Park City Library 1255 Park Ave, Park City Utah 84060
When
The Wasatch Back Book Festival is held in October every year. In 2025, it will be the weekend of October 3-5.
Booth Details
The Park City Library will provide a table and chair to set up a display where authors can sell books, share promotional materials, and highlight their author-related work.
Note
Apply by August 1st for the application to be reviewed by the committee. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection within six weeks following the deadline. If you’ve participated as a tabling author in previous years, we’d love to give new voices a chance to be featured this year. That said, we absolutely welcome your application and appreciate your continued interest in being part of the festival.
