The Arizona Author Book Festival is this Sunday, May 3, 2026. Join us for lots of bookish fun, help foster autism acceptance, and raise money for SEEDs for Autism. Author talks, book signing, free make-and-take crafts, 40 authors from throughout Arizona, The Writer’s Scene, neurodivergent authors, food, drinks, live music, giveaways and more in downtown Phoenix.

Thanks to the generosity of dozens of companies, authors, and other individuals, we have HUNDREDS of raffle prizes in all shapes, sizes and interests. Every wedge on the wheel contains a prize, and 100 percent of spin ticket sales benefits Seeds. Everyone wins!

Literary artwork, nonfiction books, children’s books, novels, magazines, tote bags, t-shirts, planners, and much more. Here’s a sneak peek at a few of the Grand Prizes.

Admission is free, and so is the valet parking at Warehouse 215. Tipping valet attendants is appreciated, though not required. There is additional street parking in the neighborhood, but pay attention to signage as many streets are permit-only. An overflow lot has parking for $5 at 7th Street and Grant, if walking a few blocks is not a problem.  Be sure to scan the QR and pay online.
