Event Description

Come Explore Bookstores Around the City

The Philadelphia Bookstore Crawl is a yearly celebration of Philadelphia’s wildly vibrant and wonderful bookstore scene, at the end of every August.

Our second Philadelphia Bookstore Crawl will take place on Saturday, August 24th.

The concept is simple. On the date of the crawl, at the end of the summer, participating bookstores around town are hosting unique and special events. Discounted books? Exciting giveaways? In-store author signings? You’ll see!

There’s no specific trail to follow. No route. Just a bundle of bookshops around town, all doing something special on one given day.

This is a list of all the bookshops participating in the crawl this year, on Saturday, August 24th.
