The 2025 Black Romance Book Fest: A Celebration of Black Love Stories

The Black Romance Book Fest is more than an event. It’s a movement created to honor Black voices in romance literature and connect readers and authors through the power of storytelling. Rooted in a love for the genre, this festival is dedicated to uplifting narratives that reflect the beauty, resilience, and joy within Black culture. Every Black love story deserves a stage where it can shine, where readers see themselves, and where authors feel the impact of their work in a space that truly celebrates them.

From May 30 to June 1, 2025, at the elegant JW Marriott Buckhead in Atlanta, GA, BRBF 2025 will host over 125 exceptional voices in Black romance, from bestselling authors to emerging stars, all coming together to create an experience unlike any other. BRBF 2025 is designed not just as a book festival but as a heartfelt community gathering where stories of Black love can be celebrated, shared, and cherished by all.
