Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I bring a book crate with me?link to this question

    Yes, you may bring one rolling crate per Attendee to wheel your books around in, as long as it doesn’t exceed an 18.5″ by 18.5″ square of floor space. In consideration of space and safety, Attendees are not permitted to bring wagons, flatbed carts, shopping carts, push carts, or similar moving devices into the signing room or convention area. A Book Check room will be available for book drop-off near the Bookstore and Vendor Marketplace.

    * Note: If you are a disabled attendee and need to use alternative equipment (e.g., mobility aids, specific carts, or storage solutions), you’re welcome to do so—even if it falls outside standard crate guidelines. Please reach out to access@lovelit.com in advance to confirm intended equipment or if you have any questions.

  • Will there be an onsite bookstore?link to this question

    Yes, we’ll have a popup bookstore on site. Our bookstore will stock some of the more popular traditionally published books from our confirmed attending Authors. It may also carry some independently-published books that are available through large distributors. However, to guarantee you get the books you really want, you’ll want to pre-order them, or bring copies with you. The bookstore will be open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

  • What do I need to check in at registration?link to this question

    Each Attendee will need their ticket and a photo ID that matches the name on that ticket. After purchasing tickets, the ticket purchaser will receive an email confirmation with your ticket(s), one ticket for each Attendee. Purchased tickets are also viewable and printable from the online Attendee Account Center. To expedite check in at registration, please bring your ticket with you. It may either be printed on paper, or saved on your phone.
