Celebrating its eleventh anniversary in 2025, the Rancho Mirage Writers Festival stands as a world-class gathering, welcoming 60 esteemed authors and 1,000 readers annually from across the globe to the Rancho Mirage Library and Observatory every January. Founded by Jamie Kabler in 2014, with the vision of creating a premier intellectual event for the Coachella Valley, the festival has earned the moniker “Coachella for the brain.”
