The Legacy Author Circle—Founding Edition

Philadelphia | May 29–30, 2026

Join authors, speakers, entrepreneurs, and leaders from across North America for a historic gathering in Philadelphia as we attempt a Guinness World Records™ title for the most authors signing the same book simultaneously.

The Legacy Author Circle – Founding Edition brings together individuals who believe their experiences, insights, and stories have the power to inspire and impact others. Each participating author will contribute a short reflection in a collaborative book and take part in the live signing event as we work together to set a new world record.

This event is more than a book signing. It is a moment where leaders come together to celebrate the power of words, relationships, and legacy.

• A historic Guinness World Records attempt
• The opportunity to connect with fellow authors, speakers, and leaders
• Professional media coverage and memorable moments captured throughout the event
• A collaborative book featuring voices and reflections from participating authors
• Networking and meaningful conversations with purpose-driven individuals

On the evening before the signing event, we will host an optional VIP gathering for those who want a more intimate opportunity to connect with fellow authors and leaders. This relaxed evening provides a chance to build relationships, share stories, and enjoy meaningful conversation before the historic signing the next day.

Authors may also invite a spectator guest at a reduced rate to attend the event and witness the record attempt. It’s a great opportunity to bring a friend, family member, or colleague to experience this historic moment alongside you.

Philadelphia has long been a place where history is made. On May 30, 2026, we invite you to be part of a unique gathering of voices as we attempt to set a new Guinness World Records and celebrate the impact of stories that inspire others.

Join us for a day that brings together leadership, legacy, and the power of words.
