Organizers of the Romance Out West event announced July 13, 2026, that they have officially opened interest forms for authors and vendors looking to participate in their 2026 programming. The event, which is currently in the planning stages, aims to host a large-scale romance book signing in Sandy, Utah.
Event Features and Planning
The Romance Out West organizers stated on their website that they are putting significant work into the planning process for the 2026 event. While the primary focus of the gathering will be romance literature, the organizers confirmed that all subgenres of the romance genre will be included in the festivities.
In addition to literary content, the event is designed to feature a variety of bookish vendors. The organizers also intend to bring in lifestyle and specialty vendors to enhance the attendee experience, including services such as a tattoo artist, a pierments/piercer, and permanent jewelry providers.
Call for Authors and Vendors
As the event moves through its 2026 planning stage, the organizers are actively seeking participants to fill the vendor and author rosters. Two specific interest forms have been made available for interested parties: a 2026 Author Interest Form and a 2026 Vendor Interest Form.
The organizers expressed enthusiasm for potential collaborators, stating, 'We would love to see you there,' in their recent announcement.
