Frankfurter Buchmesse.

Ideas that move the world.

70 years of Frankfurter Buchmesse.

Each October something special happens – Frankfurter Buchmesse opens. This year will be the fair's 70th anniversary. For book fans from all over the world and the international publishing and media industry, it will once again be all about printed and digital content and the relevant topics for the coming year. The book fair is the most important international marketplace for content, as well as a key trendsetter for society and a major cultural festival. We look forward to celebrating our guest of honour, Georgia, and discovering this country's diverse culture and literature. And we look forward to your visit.

The world's most important marketplace for printed and digital content.
