Royal Book Bash in the DMV is an annual author signing event featuring 45 authors, many of whom hail from the Delaware/DC/Maryland/Virginia region! After several years in Virginia, we are returning to Maryland for our eighth event to a wonderful venue in historic Annapolis! This is a multi-day event the weekend of November 1, 2025, featuring a Saturday book sale and signing, Saturday lunch with the authors, a Saturday evening pajama party, and a Sunday brunch. We pride ourselves on providing an intimate opportunity for readers to be up close and personal with a diverse roster of published authors of fiction works, so tickets will be limited!

Are you a military member or spouse, veteran, first responder, or teacher? Contact us for a free general admission ticket to the author book signing!

Maryland’s capital city greets you with open arms and a host of possibilities. A Museum without Walls, Annapolis is a lively, upbeat, contemporary city where four centuries of architecture embrace 21st-century living. Here all roads lead to the water and a nautical heritage intrinsically linked to the Chesapeake Bay.
While Annapolis is world-renowned as a sailing destination, the Annapolis countryside boasts hundreds of miles of Chesapeake Bay shoreline ebbing and flowing to the rhythm of the tides and nearby nautical villages. There's also easy access to the historic areas of Baltimore and Washington, DC!

All event activities will take place at the DoubleTree by Hilton Annapolis Hotel. Located right off US-50, the hotel offers a free shuttle within five miles, including to Westfield Annapolis Mall, restaurants around Annapolis Town Centre, and the US Naval Academy. Enjoy free parking, free wifi, and dining at the on-site restaurant, Ports of Call. And they welcome all guests with a world famous fresh DoubleTree Chocolate Chip Cookie.

Hotel room block information will be available in November 2024.
Nearby airports include: Baltimore/Washington International, 18 miles away, and Washington Reagan National, 30 miles away.
