A Conference for Readers and Authors of LGBTQ+ Literature
At the historic Hotel Roosevelt on Hollywood Boulevard
October 14-16, 2027
Home of the first Academy Awards Presentation
The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel is our venue for Oct 2027! The hotel will be celebrating its 100-year anniversary, and is so incredibly beautiful with its art deco style that you won’t be able to stop yourself from searching for the ghosts of Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift who are said to haunt the hotel.
Charlie Chaplin and Sid Grauman were original investors in the hotel, and the legendary Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, with the courtyard filled with hand and foot prints of the stars, sits right across the street. The Oscar walk of fame stands right beside it and boasts a fabulous view of the Hollywood Sign.
Not to mention the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the Hollywood Museum, Madame Tussauds, The Egyptian Theatre, Disney’s El Capitan Theatre, Hollywood Bowl and Pantages Theatre are all right there if you want to spend a little extra time exploring. There are many tour options that will be waiting for you right outside the Roosevelt’s door. Bus tours of the homes of the stars – or for those who like it a little darker, ghost tours!
West Hollywood (Gay town) is a short Uber or bus trip away. The Pacific Ocean is too!
We are waiting to share this once-in-a-lifetime event with you!

Since 1927, The TCL Chinese Theatre has been the premiere venue of star powered Red Carpet and Special Events. It’s where Hollywood’s biggest and brightest stars have come to watch their movies! The most famous movie theatre in world is known for its unique forecourt of the stars, featuring cement hand and footprints of major movie stars from past to present.
The Hollywood Walk of Fame is a landmark that consists of more than 2,800 five-pointed terrazzo-and-brass stars embedded in the sidewalks along fifteen blocks of Hollywood Boulevard and three blocks of Vine Street in the Hollywood district of Los Angeles, California. The stars are monuments to achievement in the entertainment industry and bear the names of a mix of actors, filmmakers, musicians, inventors, businessmen, fictional characters, and more.
The original idea for the Walk of Fame came in 1953, the first stars were unveiled in 1958, and the first permanent stars were placed in 1960. The Walk has been expanded on multiple fronts since then, including the number of stars displayed; categories, entities, and organizations honored; and blocks covered.
Both Madam Tussaud’s and the Hollywood Wax Museum are a great opportunity to get selfie’s with your favorite stars and be amazed at the skill of the wax figure artists. They are both extremely popular attractions for guests to Hollywood.
Take advantage of the opportunity to see Jimmy Kimmel LIVE! at his production studio right on Hollwood Drive! Free Tickets can be requested several weeks in advance for up to 4 people at a time.
Scum and Villainy Cantina is an intergalactic bar nestled deep within the wretched hive of Hollywood, CA. Inspired by the best drinking establishments from your favorite sci-fi and fantasy movies, Scum and Villainy is the geek bar you’ve been looking for.
Costumed bartenders join in the debate while mixing cocktails from a themed menu. Our laid-back atmosphere and strict “no bullying” mission creates a #ScifiSafeHouse not just for casual and mega-fans alike, but for anyone looking for a change of pace from the typical bar scene. Flying solo? Searching for your tribe? We definitely serve your kind here!
For Disney fans, a visit to the El Capitan Theatre is a must. The El Capitan Hollywood Boulevard theater is located across from Hollywood & Highland and is owned by The Walt Disney Company. The theatre shows first run and classic Disney movies, often with great movie-themed exhibits and pre-show entertainment.
Next to the El Capitan Theatre, this classic chocolate establishment is the perfect place to take care of that chocolate craving, with too many options to choose from.
Don’t forget to get your required picture of the Hollwood Sign to prove you were actually in Hollywood!!
Not your typical bowling alley…well, not a bowling alley at all. This iconic site for outdoor events has been a feature of many hollywood movies and is a must-see attraction.
Griffith Observatory is southern California’s gateway to the cosmos! Visitors may look through telescopes, explore exhibits, see live shows in the Samuel Oschin Planetarium, and enjoy spectacular views of Los Angeles and the Hollywood Sign.
