Join us in the Mojave for a vibrant literary gathering that brings together authors, poets, and publishers from across the country for a weekend of stories, conversation, and connection.

Held in Freedom Plaza in downtown Twentynine Palms, and hosted by Desert General Bookstore, the festival features readings, panels, book signings, and live music, all set against the striking beauty of California’s high desert. From emerging voices to celebrated names, the lineup reflects a rich diversity of perspectives and genres.

Whether you're here to discover your next favorite book, engage in thought-provoking dialogue, or soak in the creative energy of a one-of-a-kind desert town, the Twentynine Palms Book Festival invites you to be part of the story.
