BookCon is back! Exclusive details on popular fan event's return
BookCon is back! Exclusive details on popular fan event's return Hang onto your hardcovers, book fanatics – BookCon is returning next year for the first time since 2019. The annual Comic-Con-style fan event was a staple in the book community from 2014 until 2019, the last time the convention was held in person. BookCon 2020 was canceled and moved online due to the pandemic, and at the end of the year, pop culture event producer ReedPop announced BookCon and BookExpo would retire. That changes in April 2026, when BookCon comes back to New York City, ReedPop shared exclusively with USA TODAY. BookCon is coming back to New York City in 2026 ReedPop will host authors, publishers, brands and, most importantly, fans, at the Javits Center in New York City on April 18 and 19. In a statement to USA TODAY, ReedPop called the plans for the 2026 show a 'wholly reimagined event.' BookCon will feature book signings, clubs and swaps, author talks, workshops, panels, crafting zones and more. Historically, BookCon has been as star-studded as it has been packed with household-name bestsellers. Past celebrity authors and speakers have been included Nick Offerman, Amy Poehler, John Green, Jeff Kinney, Mindy Kaling and Jodi Picoult. 'BookCon has always been an incredibly special event to our team and when we made the difficult decision to cancel the show in 2020, we did so with the hope that we would bring the event back even bigger and better when the time felt right. We are so excited to welcome our BookCon community home next April for an event that has been fully reimagined to include everything fans loved about BookCon, plus so much more,' said Jenny Martin, event director at ReedPop. 'At BookCon, we believe stories are sacred, books are identity, and community is everything. We invite all of you to join us as we create a space where passion is celebrated and all of you are our main characters.'
