Montana Book Festival dates: September 10 - 12.

Through its annual literary festival and related events, The Montana Book Festival Association seeks to foster interest in literature for people of all ages, perpetuate a sense of literary community, and provide a vibrant, compelling forum for the literary arts.

This year's events, which will take place in various venues in downtown Missoula and at the University of Montana, include a Children's Book Festival, sponsored by Missoula Public Library, a Pie & Whiskey reading, a tribute to Ivan Doig, and a live The Write Question program with Chérie Newman and Smith Henderson, author of Fourth of July Creek.
