Show Dates: October 7–11, 2026

The Frankfurt International Book Fair stands as the world’s premier hub for intellectual exchange and innovation across the content industries. As the leading international trade fair for literature, scholarly materials, and other forms of media, it facilitates critical collaboration between publishing experts, technology firms, and allied creative sectors such as film and gaming. This convergence establishes the fair as the definitive marketplace for negotiating international rights and licensing agreements, driving the formation of new partnerships and business models.

​The scale of the event is significant. The 2025 fair, for example, attracted 230,000 attendees from 95 nations. The extensive program featured 2,600 events for its participants, which included 7,500 media representatives and a diverse mix of trade visitors and public enthusiasts.

​Beyond its commercial importance, the fair is a major cultural event that reinforces Frankfurt’s position as the epicenter of the global media landscape each October.

​The next edition is scheduled to take place from October 7–11, 2026.
