5th Limassol International Book Fair to take place in November 2026

The 5th Limassol International Book Fair is scheduled to take place from November 20 to 22, 2026, at the Carob Mill venue in Limassol, Cyprus. The event features a dual structure, offering a public exhibition alongside a professional program designed for publishers, authors, librarians, and technology specialists from across Europe and the Arab world.

The professional segment kicks off on Friday, November 20, with a conference addressing critical industry challenges such as the impact of artificial intelligence on publishing, the promotion of reading in the digital age, and the role of e-books and audiobooks. The professional program will host between 45 and 46 speakers representing 11 countries, including Cyprus, Egypt, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Greece, Spain, Italy, Lebanon, Slovenia, and Sweden.

Building on previous editions, the 2026 fair aims to strengthen collaboration between Mediterranean and European book markets. The Saturday agenda includes thematic sessions and the third B2B Space, a dedicated networking hub for international delegates to conduct business negotiations. The event serves as a key platform for knowledge exchange and networking within the global publishing ecosystem, focusing on the future of literature and technology.
