Programme

Dear Visitors, dear Exhibitors,

After only two decades the ADIBF is now the most professional book fair in the region and one of the world’s fastest-growing publishing events.

In 2014

  • The cultural programme, as diverse and international as the population of the UAE, will give all booklovers a reason to attend the show.
  • Children will experience the joy of reading through edutaining activities at the Creativity Corner (CC).
  • If you seek information on digital publishing, the eZone offers the general public and the professional visitor more ‘techie’ options.
  • The vibrant Illustrators’ Corner will offer an ideal venue for local and international talent to show case their work and seek advice from industry experts.
  • The Professional Programme offers exhibitors a platform that will help them make contacts in the MENA region and beyond, and that provides insight on industry trends, children’s books, illustrations, translation rights.
  • ADIBF will continue its commitment and offer of subsidising translation deals that happen at the fair under Spotlight on Rights!
  • The Show Kitchen will again delight foodies with the culinary creations of celebrity and local chefs.
