Book Signing at WOTS 2026

Step into the spotlight and connect with your audience at The Word on the Street’s 37th Annual Festival. Held at Toronto’s iconic David Pecaut Square on September 26–27, 2026, this is your opportunity to engage face-to-face with a massive community of readers.

As Canada’s largest annual book and magazine festival, WOTS has a storied history of bringing together hundreds of thousands of book lovers. We expect high-energy crowds and heavy foot traffic at our signing booths, making this the perfect stage to share your story and build your readership.

Your Book Signing Package Includes:

  • One-Hour Signing Session: Be in the spotlight as you sign books during your dedicated one-hour session at the Author Solutions booth.
  • 40 Softcover Copies for Distribution: You will receive 40 softcover copies of your book to sign and distribute to excited attendees, ensuring your work goes home in the hands of new readers.
  • Custom Promotional Materials: To help you shine, we provide 40 personalized bookmarks for visitors and a featured poster displayed at the booth during your session to draw in the crowds.
  • Bookstore Gallery Placement: Your visibility extends beyond your signing hour. Four softcover copies of your book will be featured in the Author Solutions Bookstore Gallery, where they will be available for sale throughout the festival.
  • Digital Catalog Inclusion: Your book cover and description will be showcased in our Digital Book Catalog. Attendees can access this catalog instantly via QR codes throughout the gallery, with one-click links to purchase your book from major online retailers.
