The Fair

Many of the country's most prominent intellectuals come here to discuss, debate and voice their opinions. The Book Fair is an ideal forum for cross-cultural dialogue and the open discussion of controversial opinions, ideas and issues.

29 Countries will be present this year, with more than 250 exhibitors representing the full range of publishing in South Africa. South African literature has always had a central role at the fair. This year sees the pilot of the first Cape Town Book Fair Invitation Programme which introduces 12 publishers from 12 African countries at the fair. This is an important development in the growth of the fair.
