The 2024 Decatur Book Festival features nearly 100 authors, chefs, musicians, and more on Oct 4-5.

This year marks 20 years of the Decatur Book Festival, one of the country’s most beloved literary events. What began as a bold idea in 2006 has grown into a vibrant celebration of books, voices, and community. From iconic keynotes to pandemic pivots, the DBF story is one of resilience, reflection, and renewal. Join us in honoring two decades of stories and share your favorite DBF memory as we look ahead.

The Decatur Book Festival (DBF), today unveiled a brand refresh in anticipation of its 20th anniversary.

Join us as we interview Diane from Little Shop of Stories, a beloved Decatur bookstore, to learn about its history, community, and more!
