Abu Dhabi International Book Fair (ADIBF), the most diverse book fair in the region, will begin on the 23rd of May, 2021.

Abu Dhabi is a driving force behind the professional and commercial development of the regional publishing industry and is committed to the long-term expansion of the global book business.

Abu Dhabi International Book Fair was inaugurated as long as 30 years ago by the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. Since then, it gained a global reputation as a leading literary trade and cultural event in the whole MENA region. Every year, ADBIF was a host to the most prominent Arab, regional and international publishing houses. It organized events, with the participation of the world’s greatest publishers, which help develop the publishing sector in providing local and Arab publishers with new opportunities to grow and improve.

 

Running between the 23rd and 29th of May 2021, ADIBF will highlight the richness of UAE heritage. It will also showcase its authenticity and modernity, as well as its cultural and literary output. Having direct access to industry professionals and key market players in the region, the possibilities of getting successful business deals and connections at the Abu Dhabi International Book Fair are endless.
