FOUNDERS' TICKETS: A SPECIAL PRICE FOR THE FIRST 100 TICKETS SOLD. WAITLIST MEMBERS GET FIRST CALL.
YEAR ONE
Be there at the start
For eight years SPS Live has brought indie authors together in London to learn from the best in the business and, just as importantly, from each other. In 2027 we're bringing it across the Atlantic for the first time.
The first year will be small: 200 seats, no more. That's a choice. We want the people in the room to know each other by the end of it, and to be able to say they were there when it started. Every year that follows will be built on this one.

FOUNDERS' TICKETS
SPS LIVE IN THE USA
TWO DAYS, TWO DIFFERENT GEARS
Day one is everyone in one room. Day two you choose your own path.
DAY 1 · APRIL 29
PLENARY DAY
A single track. Keynotes and sessions on the stage, the whole conference together, so nobody misses the big ideas.

PLENARY DAY

DAY 2 · APRIL 30
WORKSHOPS
A choice of hands-on workshops. Smaller rooms, more depth, pick the sessions that match where your author business is right now.
EVENING OF DAY 1 · OPTIONAL
RECEPTION
Drinks and conversation with speakers and fellow authors. The bit of a conference where the real deals and friendships get made.
FORT WORTH BOTANIC GARDEN
We could have picked a hotel ballroom. We picked 120 acres of gardens in one of the friendliest cities in Texas instead. Sessions inside, sunshine and space outside, and a setting that makes the two days feel like a proper trip rather than a work event.
Fort Worth is easy to reach through DFW, one of the biggest airports in the world, and there's a full range of hotels nearby, from cheap and cheerful to five star. Stay where suits your budget.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
One price, no surprises on the day. Pricing will be released soon, and the waitlist hears first.
✓ Full two-day conference — Day 1 plenary and Day 2 workshops
✓ Food on both days — lunch and refreshments
✓ Tea and coffee throughout — properly, all day
