WHAT ATTENDEES SAY ABOUT THE SELF PUBLISHING SHOW LIVE LONDON

"Fantastic — I’ve learned so much. It’s been such a great experience."
"I learned so much from other authors and met some truly inspirational people."
FRIDAY 30TH APRIL
WORKSHOPS
A choice of hands-on workshops. Smaller rooms, more depth, pick the sessions that match where your author business is right now.
THURSDAY 29TH APRIL
PLENARY DAY
A single track. Keynotes and sessions on stage, the whole conference together, so nobody misses the big ideas.
Expert sessions.
Actionable strategies.
Meaningful connections.
Day one is everyone in one room. Day two you choose your own path.
TWO DAYS, TWO DIFFERENT GEARS.
THE PROGRAMME
THURSDAY 29TH APRIL
EVENING RECEPTION (optional): Drinks and conversation with speakers and fellow authors. The bit of a conference where the real deals and friendships get made.
THE VENUE
FORT WORTH BOTANIC GARDENS
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.
