With this much talent in one place, you know one day isn't enough. Find your way to the opening-night Global Fire Party on Friday evening, where cookbook authors will enter our live-fire culinary theater to offer grilled, barbecued, smoked, and charred dishes from around the world. And close out the weekend during our special Wine Country edition of Tyler Florence's Masters of Fire barbecue competition.
Cookbook Fest is a groundbreaking book festival that merges the worlds of literature and gastronomy—bringing together renowned cookbook authors, celebrated podcasts, and enthusiastic food lovers.
Over three unforgettable days in the heart of Napa Valley, immerse yourself in this whirlwind of delicious experiences, all designed to ignite the senses and nourish the soul: from live podcast recordings to author book signings to engaging hands-on cooking interviews.
Situated in the heart of Napa Wine Country at the whimsical Feast It Forward, Cookbook Fest is the premiere festival where every recipe, every story, and every ingredient takes center stage. Part book festival, part food & wine festival, part music festival, Cookbook Fest is unlike anything you've seen before. We can't wait to #TalkCookbooks with you!
CookbookFest will take place at festival co-founder Katie Hamilton Shaffer’s whimsical Feast It Forward property, located in downtown Napa's Oxbow District.
Anchored by fellow tourist destinations, Oxbow Public Market, The Culinary Institute of America at Copia and the iconic Napa Valley Wine Train, this unique concept is the first of its kind.
