The York National Book Fair 2026

The York National Book Fair 2026 The York National Book Fair is returning once again on Friday 11th and Saturday 12th September 2026 Anyone interested in books and reading.

From modest beginning with just 20 exhibitors at the White Swan Inn in York in 1974, the York Book Fair has grown into the largest, and many say friendliest, rare, antiquarian & out-of-print book fair in the U.K. This year marks the 50th Anniversary of the organisation running the fair which is the Provincial Booksellers Fairs Association. You will find books over 500 years old, to review copies of recently published works, and everything in between. The venue is very easy to reach, there is unlimited free parking, and also a free shuttle bus from the Railway Station to the Fair every 20 minutes. This is not just a Fair for dealers, but is open to everyone young and old, and a great place to start collecting. With over 100,000 books for sale, where else can you look at, touch, enjoy, and even purchase so many rarities under one roof. If you are already a collector then it is a great opportunity to meet new dealers in your area.
