Happening September 20, 2025 is the Third Annual St. Augustine Book Festival, hosted by the Ximenez-Fatio House Museum on historic Aviles Street—the oldest street in the United States.

Discover a wide variety of authors and genres, including children’s books, fiction, Florida history, and more. Enjoy author meet-and-greets, explore exciting new works, and take a ticketed tour of our 227+ year-old historic house. This event is free to all, and donations are appreciated to support the preservation of our museum.

Are you a Florida-based author with work focused on pre-1800s Florida? As we prepare for America’s 250th anniversary, this year’s St. Augustine Book Festival is spotlighting authors whose work explores Florida's rich history before the 1845. If this aligns with your work, they would love to hear from you!
