Read & Run Tours Information

Read & Run Tours helps authors, publishers, nonprofits, and brands move beyond visibility to genuine connection. In a world crowded with content but starved for meaningful experiences, we provide creative marketing solutions — including event strategy and full-scale planning, speaking engagements and more — that turn strangers into superfans. Drawing on founder Allison Yates’s background in experiential learning and event design, we believe that well-crafted, imaginative events build community, deepen relationships, and keep your work memorable. We also created the book-themed guided run, bringing stories to life in the places they’re set, through Read & Run Chicago and Read & Run on the Road nationwide.
