Each year, the Mississippi Book Festival (September 13, Jackson, Mississippi) unites readers and authors via panel discussions, book signings, family-friendly activities, food trucks, live music, and more! The festival is free and open to all who attend in person, but if you're not in the area, you can still enjoy the festival's huge archive of videos from past Mississippi Book Festival events.
