Abu Dhabi International Book Fair kicks off May 22

The exhibition will continue from May 22 to May 28, 2023, with the participation of a group of eminent writers, thinkers and editors from most parts of the world, to display the distinctive literary and cultural heritage of the Middle East, in order to strengthen ties between Arab and international societies in the field of publishing.

The exhibition is organized by the Abu Dhabi Center for Arabic Language, affiliated with the Abu Dhabi Department of Culture and Tourism. This year’s session focuses on the concept of sustainability as a central idea, in line with the UAE’s declaration of 2023 as the year of sustainability.

The exhibition will witness various initiatives, events and seminars that highlight the best global methods to perpetuate sustainability in publishing.

As the leading literary event in the Arab world, the fair provides a vital platform for global dialogue that includes various lectures by prominent Arab and international speakers, including writers, editors and content creators, who present an integrated program of diverse activities that meet the aspirations of the public, including professionals, consumers and families. This program includes five main themes, namely culture and the creative arts, programs for children and youth, specialized vocational training programs, as well as partner programs.

Throughout the week, participants will be able to take part in cultural sessions such as round tables, seminars and poetry evenings that will feature famous personalities from the worlds of thought, literature and the media. Visitors will also have the opportunity to meet their favorite authors and have their books signed.
