Author & Vendor Information

Thank you for taking part in this year's Lubbock Book Festival! We've tried to compile a list of questions you might have regarding all things LBF, so that you can be equipped for August 23rd. If your question isn't answered here, please reach out to office@literacylubbock.org.

Will tickets be available at the door?

If not all tickets have been sold via online, any remaining tickets will be available at the door.
What COVID precautions are in place?

Currently, no precautions are in place. Event organizers hold the right to implement precautions, as deemed necessary, at any time, to ensure the safety of all participating authors, attendees, volunteers, and staff.
Is parking available?

Yes, the Overton Hotel does offer free parking. You can access it from 4th St. and Ave. X, on the north side of the hotel.
Are there minimum age requirements to enter the event?

There are none at this time. However, we do advise all parents and guardians that Saturday is open to all genres, including romance.
Is my ticket transferrable?

Yes, you may transfer your ticket. We do not require that the name shown matches the name of the attendee checking in.
Are refunds available?

No, ticket refunds are not available. You can, however, transfer your ticket to another person.
Are wagons and carts allowed?

Yes, carts and strollers are permitted. But due to aisle size, we ask that you don't bring massive wagons or anything too big. Check out the picture below--carts like this are absolutely perfect!
Should I bring my own books or do I have to purchase ones there to get them signed?

You're definitely more than welcome to bring your own books! But if you can purchase a book from an author, they'll definitely be appreciative of it!
How can I contact the organizer with questions?

Feel free to reach out to the organizers at office@literacylubbock.org.
Do I need to print my ticket?

Nope! You can print it, if you choose, but having it on your smartphone works just as well.
