The Jeddah International Book Fair 2025 will take place from Thursday, December 11, to Saturday, December 20, and is partially organised by the Ministry of Culture.

The Jeddah International Book Fair 2025 will feature global authors, cultural discussions, and a dedicated kids' pavilion, celebrating literature. Bibliophiles can look forward to this upcoming event following the recent Riyadh Book Fair. Under one roof in Jeddah, the expo offers a distinctive assortment of literary works, publishing exhibits, and cultural events. Visitors can anticipate attending lectures, taking part in cultural conversations, and seeing local and foreign writers. By encouraging publishers, authors, and readers to attend the fair, it hopes to grow the nation's writing and publishing sector. Besides, launched in 2015, it features around 500 international publishing houses from over 40 countries, showcasing both new and experienced Saudi writers. At the Jeddah Book Fair, children will also find something they enjoy. A pavilion has been set aside for them, just like in prior years. Last year's activities blended education with entertainment, theatre productions, hand-puppet workshops, fashion, culinary arts, and music. Among many other events, the most significant was a storyboard-making workshop. The Saudi Literature, Publishing, and Translation Commission's third book fair venture is the Jeddah Book Fair. The commission organised the June Madinah Book Fair and the October 2025 Riyadh Book Fair. Manga and comic book enthusiasts will have their own pavilion at the 2025 Jeddah Book Fair, along with exclusive deals on a variety of works. Furthermore, the reduced section has some fantastic offers. Read more: Saudi HR Week, 2025
