It’s a Spring Tradition: The Bologna Children’s Book Fair Is on Its Way

From April 3-6, 2017, upwards of 25,000 participants from 98 countries will gather in Bologna, Italy, to learn about industry trends, recognize excellent works, discover talent, network and, of course, bring awareness to their own products. Considered the most significant international children’s publishing industry event, the Bologna Children’s Book Fair spotlights children’s publishing with a focus on the sale of rights and international co-productions. In addition to children’s authors and illustrators, attendees include:

    • literary agents
    • publishers
    • booksellers/buyers
    • licensors and merchandisers
    • distributors
    • bookstores
    • translators
    • mobile developers
    • and other key players in the publishing industry!

It’s a priceless opportunity to launch or enhance a career in children’s literature with worldwide reach and added revenue streams. Plus, when you exhibit your children’s book at the Bologna Children’s Book Fair through Outskirts Press, you’ll receive the added benefits of prominent face-out display of your book and an on-site representative to gather valuable industry leads for you to personally follow up!

While the deadline has passed for the 2017 event, consider exhibiting your children’s book next year. Simply log in to your Publishing Center at outskirtspress.com and select Bologna Children’s Book Fair from the Marketing Solutions menu. Just remember that space is limited and reserved on a first-come, first served basis. (Note: Due to the certain requirements for Bologna, this event is not a part of our Global Book Tour package and must be booked separately.)
