Miami Book Fair 2022

Miami Book Fair presents the 39th annual Miami Book Fair November 13 through November 20. An eight-day celebration of, for, and by authors, books, and people who love them. The Fair features more than 400 authors and presenters from across the country and globe; nearly 150 in-person and on-demand programs delivered in English, Spanish (through the IberoAmerican Authors program), and Haitian Creole and French (through the ReadCaribbean program); the signature evening lineup, which includes Kevin Nealon, John Waters, Michael Pollan, Charlayne Hunter-Gault, Harvey Fierstein, Jimmy Johnson, Art Spiegelman, Patti Smith, and Jose “Fat Joe” Cartagena; and the teeming and vibrant Street Fair weekend. Attendees will find exciting, hands-on activities and kid-friendly music and theatrical performances that make learning fun at Children’s Alley and Off the Shelf, the Fair’s uber-cool hangout with spinning DJ’s, live music, literary events and performances, and a well-stocked food and drink court.
