This free, one-day festival once again promises to be an exciting and important destination for fans of middle-grade and young adult books — and not just the readers who live in Dallas-Fort Worth. Highlights from this year’s list of more than 70 authors include Marissa Meyer (Renegades, Lunar Chronicles), Marie Lu (Warcross) and John Green (The Fault in Our Stars, Looking for Alaska).
Festival attendees can expect panels, author signings and a handful of events, including a version of “speed dating” with books. While the festival is free and open to everyone, select events and author signing lines require wristbands for entry, which will be available at the venue on the morning of the festival.
March 7 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Irving Convention Center at Las Colinas, 500 W. Las Colinas Blvd., Irving. Free admission. $10 for parking.
