In its 27th year and no longer on the harbor: it runs in the streets of Waverly now, over nine stages, and it is free to walk into. Authors, panels, signings, children's programming and a street full of booksellers, with the Saturday running late into an after-dark party. Two days a year, so this page is quiet for the other 363.
