A book fair is a large event, often a festival or market, where publishers, authors, booksellers, and readers gather to promote, sell, and discover books, ranging from big industry trade shows (like Frankfurt Book Fair) to community fundraisers or school events focused on encouraging reading. They serve as cultural events to celebrate literature, showcase new releases, connect authors with fans, and facilitate business within the publishing world, often featuring signings, discussions, and displays of various genres.
