Seattle Independent Bookstore Day 2024

Calendar/Event Details

Sat, April 27, 2024
Mon, May 6, 2024

Seattle Independent Bookstore Day is the local home of the national Independent Bookstore Day, a one-day celebration on the last Saturday of April, hosted by independent booksellers for our readers and customers. The 2024 Independent Bookstore Day takes place on April 27. This year once again the participating Seattle-area booksellers are offering the Bookstore Day Passport Challenge, with ten days to complete the challenge.

Independent Bookstore Day is on Saturday, April 27, and the challenge must be completed by Monday, May 6.

Book fanatics who complete the challenge will receive a Bookstore Day Champion Stamp Card, good for a one-time 25% discount at each participating store and valid until April 25, 2025.

Like last year, we are also offering an intermediate reward: those who don’t complete the full challenge but get their passport stamped at at least five participating stores during the ten-day period will receive a single 25%-off coupon, good at any of the participating stores.

Bookstores throughout the Puget Sound area will be participating.
