Join us July 18-20, 2026 | Sun Valley Pavilion
Stay tuned for upcoming announcements about 2026 Special Series Pavilion Passes.
Full Conference Passes to the Sun Valley Writers’ Conference sell out quickly each year—often within minutes. In response, we now offer Special Series Pavilion Passes, a flexible new way to experience SVWC at a lower price point. These passes offer access to select afternoon Pavilion Talks each day, including Q&A sessions and author book signings. Ideal for those who missed out on a Full Conference Pass or want a session-based, in-person experience, Pavilion Passes range from $50–$150 per day and are transferable. More details about speakers and pricing and how to purchase will be available soon.
In 2025, Special Series Pavilion Passes replaced our single event tickets.
