2026 Crossover Programming

The New Orleans Book Festival at Tulane University collaborates with a variety of organizations to present dynamic crossover programming that connects literature with entrepreneurship, technology, culture and more. These partnerships allow attendees to experience engaging conversations that bridge disciplines, bringing together thought leaders, innovators, and creatives for discussions that inspire new ideas and perspectives. By aligning with like-minded events and institutions, the festival enhances its offerings, creating a richer intellectual and cultural experience for audiences while further positioning New Orleans as a hub for storytelling, innovation, and exchange.

Previous partners in crossover programming include Amistad Research Center, The Atlantic, Newcomb Art Museum, Newcomb Institute, New Orleans Culture and Recreation Fund, New Orleans Entrepreneur Week (NOEW), Tulane Environmental Law & Policy Summit, Tulane Libraries and more. 

More information about crossover programming for the 2026 festival will be announced with the full schedule of sessions in the weeks before the event.
