Saudi Arabia participates at London Book Fair

RIYADH: The Literature, Publishing and Translation Commission is preparing to lead Saudi Arabia’s participation at the London Book Fair 2025, which will take place from March 11-13 at the Olympia Exhibition Center in the UK capital.

The participation aims to strengthen cultural relations and knowledge exchange between Saudi Arabia and the UK, as well as to enrich cooperation in literature, publishing and translation. It also seeks to enhance the presence of Saudi publishing houses and literary agencies in major cultural events both regionally and globally.

By leading Saudi Arabia’s participation in international book fairs, the commission aims to provide a platform for Saudi publishers and literary agents to connect with global publishing houses. This contributes to fostering knowledge exchange and exposing publishers and literary agents to international publishing experiences, driven by a belief in the importance of communication between the local and global publishing sectors and its impact on developing the cultural sector and enriching Arabic content.
