Göteborg Book Fair

The Göteborg Book Fair (Swedish: Bok & Bibliotek) is an annual event held in Gothenburg, Sweden, since 1985.[1][2] It started primarily as a trade fair (for librarians and teachers) but is now the biggest literary festival in Scandinavia and the second biggest book fair in Europe after the Frankfurt Book Fair.[3] The book fair usually takes place in the last week of September each year. It has around 100,000 visitors and 900 exhibitors annually.[1][4]
