NovelCon - May 9, 2026
Readers of the Valley presents NovelCon — a premier author and bookish vendor event hosted at the DoubleTree by Hilton Paradise Valley–Scottsdale Resort.
At its heart, NovelCon is an extension of the Readers of the Valley mission: to foster genuine community, amplify indie and local voices, and create welcoming spaces where book lovers can connect through shared stories. We believe literature thrives when readers, authors, and small businesses come together in meaningful ways.
NovelCon is an intimate, thoughtfully curated gathering that prioritizes atmosphere over spectacle—warm, inviting, and connection-driven. The event centers on supporting local and independent authors, bookish creators, and small businesses, encouraging real conversations, discovery, and collaboration.
Whether you’re meeting a new favorite author, supporting a local vendor, or connecting with fellow readers, NovelCon is about belonging, creativity, and celebrating the literary community we’re building together.
