Meet the Authors Reception

A special component of SOKY Book Fest weekend is the annual Meet the Authors Reception. The reception is a prestigious event, allowing community members to meet with authors the night before SOKY Book Fest for an evening of drinks,* food, and fun. The 2017 Meet the Authors Reception will be held on Friday, April 21 from 5 to 7 pm in the West Lobby of the Knicely Conference Center. *You must be of legal drinking age to consume alcohol. Please remember to bring a valid ID.

Authors scheduled to attend this year’s reception include R.L. Stine, Tim Crothers, David Grann, Obert Skye, Charles Ghigna, and many other authors of varying genres.

Tickets to the reception are $50 per person and cover food and beverages consumed at the event for that individual. For the first time ever, you can purchase Reception tickets online, but we only have a limited number of tickets available. Get yours now, before they’re gone!

Ticket sales will close Monday, April 17 at 4:30pm (Central time).
