2026 Summer Book Bingo: Download your card here

There's so much to love about summer in Seattle: long days, picnics in the park, outdoor movies and more. But for readers, perhaps the best part is Summer Book Bingo.

A partnership between Seattle Arts & Lectures, The Seattle Public Library and King County Library System, the 12th annual Summer Book Bingo kicks off today. Participants are invited to fill out a bingo card throughout the summer by reading books that fit different categories on the card, and turn it in by Tuesday, Sept. 8, at 6 p.m. to be entered in a prize drawing. Cards with a horizontal, vertical or diagonal bingo will be entered to win a special Book Bingo prize. Blacked-out cards will be entered to win one of three grand prizes per library system, including a SAL subscription to four free events in the 2026/2027 season.

Cards can be dropped off at any SPL or KCLS location, or by completing the submission form at spl.org/bookbingo or kcls.org/bookbingo. You can download the 2026 card here. A youth card is also available and can be downloaded here.

For more information, see spl.org/bookbingo, kcls.org/bookbingo or lectures.org/program/summer-book-bingo. Happy reading!
