What We Know So Far About Thai Book Fair 2023

If you’re on the hunt for a new book to add to your growing collection, you’ll be glad to find out that a convention dedicated to bibliophiles is taking place this year. Prepare to dive into a world of gripping stories and out-of-this-world adventures as the Thai Book Fair is making its much-awaited return on March 30 to April 9!

This year’s iteration carries the theme “Bookfluencer,” which aims to shift people’s perception and show how influencers such as Mr. James and Patcharapol Taengruen can sway the general public’s book-buying habits. Happening on the lower ground floor of the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, the Thai Book Fair will unite publishers and authors for a whole week of shopping and immersive experiences.

Expect to be treated with an extensive selection of paperbacks, from fiction and non-fiction to Thai and English books that will pique your interest. Manga comics such as “Naruto,” “Death Note,” “Attack on Titan,” “Slam Dunk,” “Detective Conan,” “Lone Wolf and Cub,” “Pokémon Adventures,” and “Tokyo Revengers” will be on offer to satisfy your love for Japanese content. Of course, a literary gathering is not without its share of child-friendly books that will expand your kid’s understanding and view of the world.

Apart from books, Thailand’s largest book fair will mount seminars and storytelling sessions to discover how your favourite authors craft books, from ideation to writing and publishing. If that’s not enough, you can also look forward to special giveaways and food and beverages to fill your boiling tummies.

As of writing, the organisers have not yet announced the ticket prices and entry policies for the event. Interested individuals can stay updated by following the Thai Book Fair’s official Facebook page. For queries and other concerns, email [email protected] or call directly at +6629549560.
