About LBM 2025
The Leipzig Book Fair (also known as Leipziger Buchmesse or LBM) is considered Europe’s biggest reading festival, and the sector is preparing for its 79th edition in 2025. The event is organised by Leipziger Messe GmbH between 27 and 30 March 2025 and will be open all three days between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 (5:00) p.m.
The trade fair gathers yearly readers, authors, publishers, booksellers, librarians, teachers, and media from over 40 countries around the world at Leipziger Messe. LBM is the most essential European event for the book and media industry, connecting readers with authors, publishers and media companies from Germany and worldwide. Exhibitors and visitors experience a diverse range of literature works, discover the latest trends and innovations and gain new insights.
Leipzig Book Fair 2025 will be held jointly with two other exciting events:
- Manga-Comic-Con (MMC): an entire hall will be dedicated to signing sessions with stars, an exciting series at the Anime Cinema, colourful cosplayers, and plenty of workshops;
- Leipzig liest (Leipzig reads): this inspiring reading festival offers a large stage for publishers and authors to present their latest works. Reading fans will experience literature and literary figures through live readings, talk rounds and various events.
LBM 2025 attendees will celebrate the latest literature trends, exchange ideas with people with similar interests, and explore the book and media industry, focusing on fiction, non-fiction, and specialist literature topics. The festival will be divided into five thematic worlds, including genres like Fiction/Non-fiction, Children and Youth, Education, Travel, Music, Literature, Authors@Leipzig, Book Art & Graphics, etc.
