Norway is the Guest of Honour at the Book Fair in Warsaw on 26 – 29 May 2022. The book fair takes place at the Palace of Culture and Science, and it is the most important book fair in Poland.
The Guest of Honour project is organized by NORLA in close cooperation with the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Warsaw.
The book fair is an exciting opportunity to present a wide range of Norwegian literature on the Polish market, and for several Norwegian authors to engage with their Polish audience.
We are offering an exstensive program where 30 authors/illustrators from Norway participate in 50 events in all genres, aimed at both readers and the book industry. There are also meeting places between Norwegian agents and foreign book trade professionals.
