BolognaBookPlus aims to give general trade companies an opportunity to expand their reach across Europe and beyond, through a variety of exhibiting packages.
Building on the 60-year history of BCBF, and with a team of experienced exhibition organisers, BBPlus is an additional focal point in the trade publishing calendar, allowing those who traditionally visit BCBF additional opportunities for their general trade colleagues.
Packages range from ’space only’ options, turnkey ‘turn up and trade’ stands, through to rights tables in the new combined children’s and general adult trade rights centre, Bologna Rights Centre. BCBF exhibitors wanting to expand their reach with stands in the BBPlus area will also receive a discount.
BolognaBookPlus is the brand extension of BCBF, extending the reach of the well-established children’s fair into the general trade audience globally. Exhibiting at BolognaBookPlus will enable you to reach the general trade market at a prestigious Spring European fair, whilst also accessing the audience and success of the prestigious BCBF. There are several options for exhibiting, which will be attractive to all in the global book ecosystem, for example:
In addition to physical exhibiting, there are options for showcasing your titles without having to be present.
The attractive exhibition offer is supported by a range of training and conferences, including rights training; a translation conference, a professional seminar programme and awards.

EXHIBITORS AREA
The New Title Showcase is an official exhibit at the heart of BolognaBookPlus.
The showcase is an attractive, low-budget way for publishers and authors to have their titles on display, both print and digital, at major international book fairs, and in prime exhibiting locations. Official exhibit means high visibility, promotion and traffic, and will help drive the audience, including book buyers, publishers, agents, media, librarians and more, to your books and ebooks.
Every title entered will also be included in an online searchable database. Each database will contain the same information as the exhibit catalogue (including important title and company information) in addition to images of each title. Your information will be included on the database for one full year.
New Title Showcase is managed by Combined Book Exhibit, our partners in the US.
