The BIG Festive Indie Book Launch

It's CHRRRRIIIIISSSSSTTTTTMMMMASSSSSS! And, we're bringing you - reviewers, journalists, influencers, book bloggers, librarians, booksellers, publishers, agents and authors - the chance to come together at a FREE (say what?) event showcasing the great and the good of the indie book world this holiday season!

Yes, you heard it right, LitPR is hosting its second BIG Indie Book Launch, and this time it's full of festive cheer.

And we're back in the iconic Foyles flagship London store on Charing Cross Road, of course!

Following the success of the first BIG Indie Book Launch in the summer, hosted by prize-winning publishing PR & marketing agency LitPR, this festive edition is going to be an unrivalled evening of pure bookish joy.

From self published titles to books released by the small but mighty indie presses in the UK, The BIG Festive Indie Book Launch promises to be its usual positive and uplifting evening showcasing the best indie books launching from Autumn/Winter 2023 into early 2024 - offering something for everyone.

In keeping with the longstanding LitPR party tradition, every guest will be gifted a tote bag on arrival. They are then set the challenge of walking around the room to meet the lovely authors and publishers launching their books that evening, collect some fab and original merch and goodies for their bags, and of course, a few books for good measure!

No Christmas party would be complete without some delicious food and drink, a festive playlist that will get you dancing, and giveaways galore.

This is a wonderful opportunity for readers and book fans to meet amazing authors (the line-up will be unveiled one month before the event) launching their books at The BIG Festive Indie Book Launch in person. But we're also going to be hosting an online Q&A after the event for anyone who is unable to attend/travel to London (based on feedback). The venue is wheelchair accessible (via a lift to the sixth floor) but there isn't any parking on site as this is in central London. We will have a few seats dotted around the room but please make sure you let us know if you have any special requests as we want to make sure everyone feels welcome, comfortable and able to enjoy!

This is a first-come-first-served guest-list only event. If your plans change nearer the time and you can't attend we politely ask that you cancel your ticket as a waiting list will be in operation.

For now though, put us in your diary, and watch this space as we announce the line-up of authors launching on the night, and please support them by following them on social media, attending the party, talking to them, grabbing some of their marketing merch, taking photos and sharing on socials, and of course reading and then reviewing their books on Goodreads, Amazon etc.

Ho, Ho, Ho... Merry Christmas!
