About This Event
The Philadelphia Bookstore Crawl is a yearly celebration of Philadelphia’s wildly vibrant and wonderful bookstore scene, at the end of every August.
The third Philadelphia Bookstore Crawl will take place on Saturday, August 22.
The concept is simple. On the date of the crawl, at the end of the summer, participating bookstores around town are hosting unique and special events.
There’s no specific trail to follow. No route. Just a bundle of bookshops around town, all doing something special on one given day. You can check out what shops are participating and what they are doing via the Interactive Bookstore Crawl Map.
Stay tuned for more about how Reads & Company will celebrate the day!
