Set in the heart of Austin at 603 North Lamar Boulevard, BookPeople is the city’s beloved indie bookstore and a go-to venue for live literary events. The two-story space transforms into an intimate setting for author talks, lively Q&As, book launches, storytelling nights, podcast tapings and community panels. With close-up seating and a relaxed vibe, it is a place where you can actually hear the stories behind the stories.
