Inkwell Night Market: A Boozy Adult Book Fair
Sip, browse, and vibe at the Inkwell Night Market—where books and booze meet for a lively adult night out!
Inkwell Night Market: A Boozy Adult Book Fair
Southwest Louisiana's premier boozy bookish market event. The inaugural event, formerly known as Nevermore Night Market, took place in October 2025.
Get ready for a grown-up book fair with cocktails, cozy fall vibes, and just the right amount of bookish mischief.
Join us for Inkwell Night Market, an adult boozy book fair featuring indie authors, bookish vendors, and unique experiences for readers who love a good story and a good drink. Browse your next favorite read, shop from local and indie creatives, sip something delicious, and mingle with fellow book lovers for a night of literary chaos in the best possible way.
We are still adding authors and vendors to the event, and the full list will be updated and completed by September 17th.
Please note: Ticket prices are listed before applicable taxes and Eventbrite fees. There will be no door tickets available for VIP. A limited handful of General Admission tickets may be available at the door for $30, but door tickets will not include the ability to receive a tote bag. If you want the full experience, grab your ticket early before they disappear into the bookish void.
Whether you’re coming for the books, the cocktails, the vendors, or the grown-up Scholastic Book Fair nostalgia, this is one fall night out you’ll want on your calendar.

Agenda
-
VIP Shopping Hour
VIP Shopping Hour is the superior way to shop Inkwell Night Market. Fewer people. More first dibs. Less accidental elbowing near the vendor tables. Just you, your questionable self-control, and a room full of temptations.

GA Shopping Hours
General Admission is when the doors open to everyone and the full Inkwell Night Market chaos officially begins—books, vendors, good vibes, and plenty of opportunities to make questionable but deeply satisfying purchases.
