Following the remarkable success of its previous editions, the 5th Limassol International Book Fair returns from 20–22 November 2026, presenting its most ambitious and dynamic programme to date.

This year’s major highlight is the expansion of the Fair from Friday morning from (10:00 to 20:00), with more than 110 exhibitors and book stands welcoming visitors, while all six thematic stages will begin hosting events from the very first day. For three days, Limassol will transform into a vibrant meeting point for literature, ideas and culture.

The Fair will welcome more than 150 authors, speakers and cultural figures from Cyprus, Greece, Europe, Russia, Ukraine and the Middle East, presenting over 100 events designed for readers of every age. Book launches, author interviews, panel discussions, creative workshops, educational programmes, a professional publishing conference, school visits, reading marathons and a wide range of interactive activities will create an unforgettable experience for families, students, professionals and book lovers alike.

Visitors will have the opportunity to meet acclaimed writers from Cyprus and abroad, discover thousands of books—from the latest releases to timeless literary classics—and engage in conversations exploring literature, poetry, history, psychology, popular science and many of today’s most thought-provoking ideas.

The Limassol International Book Fair is far more than a book fair. It is a celebration of stories, ideas and cultural exchange—a place where authors meet readers, conversations inspire change, and for three unforgettable days, Limassol becomes the literary capital of the Eastern Mediterranean.
