YES! Knockout Book Bash is a charity book signing where ALL OF OUR PROCEEDS go to the chosen charity of choice. Because of this we rely heavily on individuals to donate and sponsor items such as the author autograph booklet, lanyards, VIP & GA bags, swag for aforementioned bags, and raffle baskets. If you are interested in sponsoring Knockout Book Bash, please feel free to fill out our SPONSOR FORM or email us at knockoutbookbash@gmail.com with "SPONSOR" in the email's subject line. We'll get back to you as soon as we can!

Sponsorship donations are non-refundable. Please be very sure you want to donate before you do so. We put all of this money towards all of the many necessary expenses of the event.

Tickets go on sale September 1, 2024 and we highly encourage you to share about that when they do! Please feel free to invite your friends to our Attendee Facebook Group as well if they're interested in possibly attending. You can also follow, and share, our social media channels with your bookish friends. The links are posted below for you.

There will be lanyards and name tags for at least VIPs, that we know if right now. There will also be a table with sharpies on it so that attendee can write their name on their name tag with a sharpie to help authors when they're signing books to an attendee. If and when we get confirmation that there will be lanyards and name tags for General Admission attendees, we will update this post to reflect so.

There will be 500 VIP attendees and up to 500 General Admission tickets to be sold. Because of this we are creating a "Chill Room" for anyone who needs to take a breather from the event. It will be a separate room with chairs and water bottles provided so you can take a break if need be. Please know though that this venue is HUGE and we will have over 12,000 sq. ft. at our disposal. This does NOT count the additional room (the Paddock) we are renting to offer a catered lunch for event attendees who choose to buy a ticket for that.
