An eventful book fair week lies behind us. Thank you for being part of #fbm24 – and making Frankfurter Buchmesse unforgettable once again! 

With this year's motto “FBM24 is Read!ng”, the last five days were again filled with that special book fair feeling. The Guest of Honour, Italy, showcased its vibrant literary tradition. During the week, trade visitors could expand their knowledge with our professional programme, discover trends and exchange ideas with key industry players. From Friday afternoon, the programme for the general public opened up with exciting events, a range of stars and the chance to get your favourite book signed in person.

This was Frankfurter Buchmesse 2024
