About the event
The South Coast Book Festival (formerly the Southwest Louisiana Family Book Festival) was founded over a decade ago by community volunteers to promote reading, literacy, and engagement with the literary arts in Southwest Louisiana.
The festival offers attendees a unique cultural experience centered on books, storytelling, and creativity, while spotlighting local and regional authors, publishers, and small businesses. Guests can explore literary works, discover community-based products and services, and celebrate the region’s diverse cultures and traditions.
