Bath Book Fair 2026
The 2026 edition of Bath Book Fair proved to be a resounding success, kicking off on a glorious Friday with a bustling queue of people eager to enter at noon — an impressive turnout given the lure of sunny weather and the summer holidays.
The event brought together more than 70 dealers from the UK’s two largest antiquarian booksellers associations, the PBFA and ABA. The ongoing partnership between these two organizations continues to pay dividends, particularly from a marketing perspective by drawing in a significantly broader audience.
Inside the fair, the atmosphere was lively and the mood among dealers remained overwhelmingly positive; brisk setup gave way to steady traffic from dedicated buyers.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, and we hope to see you next year!
