Food Book Fair

Food Book Fair A festival of writing about eating. Currently on hiatus. Our dynamic programming also includes film screenings, dinners, workshops and much more.

Food Book Fair launched in 2012 as the first event of its kind: part festival, part conference, set at the intersection of food culture and food systems. Dubbed the "Coachella of writing about eating," "a voracious reader's dream," and "food geek heaven," our event remains ceaselessly inspired by food media — books, yes, but also magazines, television, film and radio. We're the only place in the w

orld for — our festival-within-the-festival starring magazines and makers from Mexico City, Tokyo, and beyond — and our talks are known for unpacking hot topics from immigrant cuisine to queer food culture. We're nerdy, yet cool; forward-thinking, yet historically aware. We're Food Book Fair.

Our Story

Food Book Fair launched in 2012 as the first event of its kind: part festival, part conference, set at the intersection of food culture and food systems. Dubbed the "Coachella of writing about eating," "a voracious reader's dream," and "food geek heaven," our event remains ceaselessly inspired by food media — books, yes, but also magazines, television, film and radio. We're the only place in the world for #Foodieodicals — our festival-within-the-festival starring magazines and makers from Mexico City, Tokyo, and beyond — and our talks are known for unpacking hot topics from immigrant cuisine to q***r food culture. Our dynamic programming also includes film screenings, dinners, workshops and much more. We're nerdy, yet cool; forward-thinking, yet historically aware. We're Food Book Fair.
