Palace of Culture and Science and Plac Defilad
The Warsaw International Book Fair will be open for the visitors on:
25.05.2023 | 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
26.05.2023 | 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM
27.05.2023 | 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM
28.05.2023 | 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM

The Admission is free for all visitors.

The advantages of the Warsaw International Book Fair are a wide, international group of exhibitors; the presence of excellent creators: writers, translators or illustrators; a multithreaded program for lovers of literature, including people professionally associated with the publishing industry; cooperation with renowned partners: institutions and media; free admission with the transmission of selected events in social media and an audience of thousands.

Intensive work on the next edition of the Fair is underway. After the attendance success of 2022 edition, this year we plan to significantly increase the area of the Fair, especially in the interiors of the Palace of Culture and Science.

We will offer exhibitors two floors of the Palace of Culture and Science — all the rooms of the second, as well as — which will be a novelty next year — most of the rooms of the fourth floor inside the Palace of Culture and Science. Some of these rooms have not yet been used for program purposes of the Book Fair. The rooms have undergone a complete refurbishment and some of them look especially stunning. In addition to the stands, there will be places for meetings, debates and discussions, as well as stages, including the main stage (the outdoor stage in front of the main entrance will also be open).

We also plan to expand and modify the Fair’s external exhibition. Multi- and single-stand tents will stand on Plac Defilad in front of the main entrance to the Palace of Culture and Science (from Marszałkowska street), but also — for the first time — on the outside of the Palace of Culture and Science, in front of the entrance to the Kinoteka, from Aleje Jerozolimskie street. Thanks to this, new entrances will also be available to facilitate visiting the fair exhibition in the Palace of Culture and Science, especially the fourth floor: from Marszałkowska street (main entrance to the Palace of Culture and Science) and from Al. Jerozolimskie (Kinoteka). We are currently developing trade fair plans and diagrams so as to clearly present the new communication facilities. Free admission and additional communication will ensure much greater freedom of movement around the entire interior of the Palace of Culture and Science than during the fair in 2022. We will also provide interested publishers with the opportunity to use specially prepared ones and marked tents in front of the main entrance and the entrance to Kinoteka. They will act as an autograph zone for the most popular authors, for whom there are usually long queues.

The nearest edition of the Warsaw International Book Fair will take place from 25 to 28 May 2023 at the Palace of Culture and Science and at Plac Defilad (the area in front of the Palace of Culture and Science from Marszałkowska street and Aleje Jerozolimskie / Kinoteka).
