Sharjah International Book Fair 2024

Sharjah International Book Fair is one of the world’s largest book fairs, held at the Sharjah Expo Centre, in Sharjah, UAE, every year. The eleven day fair has over 400 literary events, including daily writing workshops, poetry readings and book signings. The stalls prominently feature local favourites, including several Arabic books on Sharjah, Arab culture and Arabic art. The Sharjah book fair is a huge attraction for literature buffs. 
There is something for everyone at the SIBF, including food and snacks and live cookery stations to give visitors insights into the taste and making of Arabic food. Many parents opt to bring their children to the Expo centre to shop for story books during the book festival, a fun and educational activity for all family members, as there is a vast programme dedicated to children as well!
This year's edition is from 6th to 17th November. The great news is that Morocco is the Guest of Honour of this year, celebrating Moroccan profound literary heritage and cultural influence. The Moroccan pavilion will feature an exciting programme including documentary screenings, panel discussions, artistic workshops and musical performances. It will also showcase publications, historical documents, and the works of distinguished authors, offering a unique insight into the country’s rich history, civilisation, and arts. Visitors will engage with prominent Moroccan intellectuals and literary figures, deepening connections between the two nations and promoting cultural dialogue. Through this collaboration, SIBF aims to highlight Morocco’s intellectual and artistic achievements, while enhancing global cultural exchange.
The whole event is totally free.
