Charleston Literary Festival Expands Access
The Charleston Literary Festival has announced new ways to attend sold-out and waitlisted programming for its tenth festival. The festival is set to host over 80 authors in the Lowcountry.
Overflow tickets are now available for $20 per session, allowing attendees to watch live-streams of events featuring authors such as Tayari Jones, Virginia Evans, and Lily King at the French Huguenot Church. Belle Burden’s live-stream will be shown at the Queen Street Playhouse. Both venues are located near the Dock Street Theatre. Following these live-streams, attendees can meet the authors and purchase books for signing at the Dock Street Theatre.
For those who prefer to participate from home, sold-out sessions can be accessed via online live-stream for $10, enabling virtual watch parties. While the Barbara Kingsolver event on November 12 will be available for home live-streaming, it will not include a book signing. The Salman Rushdie event will not be available for live-streaming due to licensing issues. Although 16 live events have sold out, 36 other events still have tickets available.
