SATURDAY BOOK SALES & SIGNINGS
YOUR PURCHASE SUPPORTS the FESTIVAL
The Savannah Book Festival is proud to partner with E. Shaver, Bookseller, one of Savannah’s most beloved local independent bookstores. This collaboration is a vital part of our mission to celebrate literary culture and support the local community.
Your book purchases directly help sustain the Festival. A significant portion of every sale, 20% of all proceeds, comes back to the Savannah Book Festival. This crucial funding helps us keep Festival Saturday a free and open event for everyone to enjoy.
Purchasing from our exclusive bookseller is also the only way to get your books signed by our featured authors at the Festival. For a special keepsake, we will also have pre-signed copies of select books available. Please be sure to buy your books early, as quantities are limited!
WHERE to PURCHASE FESTIVAL BOOKS
Books by all presenting SBF authors will be available for purchase at our Book Sales Tent in Telfair Square beginning at 12:00PM on Friday, February 6, 2026. The tent will reopen at 8:00 AM on Festival Saturday, February 7, 2026.
On Saturday, additional book sales will be available in Wright and Chippewa Squares. Look for the book sales tents located near the food trucks and Royal Restrooms around each square. Authors presenting in venues surrounding Wright and Chippewa Squares will have their books for sale at these nearby locations. All titles will also be available in the main Book Sales Tent on Telfair Square.
Headliner Authors’ books are also available at their venues before and after their author presentations. Literati members and sponsors are eligible for a 10% discount on books purchased during Festival weekend.
Book Signings
SBF authors will only sign books purchased at the Festival and accompanied by an SBF author signing card or receipt (provided at the time of purchase) following their presentations.Â
Free Festival Saturday authors will sign books in the Author Signing Tent in Telfair Square directly following their presentations. Authors are unable to sign books not purchased at the Festival.
