Utah Authors Day

UADLogo_blue.png

Saturday, December 5, 2026

Utah Authors Day is a tradition dating back to the 1930s that was revived by the League of Utah Writers in 2021. This holiday, which is recognized annually with an official declaration from the governor, is a fantastic opportunity to bring writers into their local communities to meet readers and celebrate Utah's wealth of literary talent.

2026 author applications are now closed. For any questions, please contact utahauthorsday@leagueofutahwriters.org
