Book fairs give authors and publishers a way to present a title in a shared, in-person setting. Turnpage Global handles your participation—from the book display to supporting publicity—with an approach built around your goals.

01

Why exhibit at a book fair?

A fair or exhibition puts your book in front of readers and publishing professionals in person, with the chance to talk about your work and learn from other authors.

  • Present a title at a book display
  • Introduce your book and author brand to visitors
  • Meet readers and publishing professionals
02

What participation includes

Book fair participation brings together several elements, confirmed for your selected exhibit before you commit.

  • A display slot at a selected exhibit
  • A listing in the Combined Book Exhibit catalog or database, where applicable
  • A pre-event online press release
  • Book signings at selected exhibits
03

Choose an approach that fits

Start with what you want from the event: a physical display, an opportunity to meet readers, or added visibility around your participation. We match those priorities to the right fair or exhibition.

  • Add an in-person signing to your plans
  • Ask which catalog or publicity elements are available
  • Exhibit at national and international fairs
  • Confirm the selected exhibit and its participation details
04

Plan for meaningful conversations

A fair works best as part of a broader effort to introduce your book. We help you prepare a clear description of the title and its readers, and plan the conversations you want to have.

  • Define the book’s subject and target readership
  • Prepare a concise introduction to your work
  • Identify questions you would like to ask readers or industry peers
