Manila International Book Fair on
MANILA, Philippines - Bibliophiles are in for a treat at the Manila International Book Fair, which is slated from Sept. 16-20 at the SMX Convention Center, SM Mall of Asia, Pasay City.
Celebrating its 36th year, the MIBF showcases the largest and most varied collection of literature for leisure and academic reading, including bestselling novels, children’s books, hobbies and special interests, cookbooks, comics and graphic novels, reference materials, religious publications, multimedia and more. The MIBF is also the go-to event for this year’s biggest book launches, signings, contests, dialogues with readers, and other literary events, as well as a venue for the exchange of ideas among players in the publishing industry, the academe and the reading public.
After three decades, the fair has transitioned from a small event for the publishing industry and the academe to the biggest and longest-running book fair.
The MIBF will also host two co-located events. The latest trends in technology will be discussed at the Digitech Manila Conference and Expo on Sept. 17 and 18. Meanwhile, one of the most awaited events for anime lovers and cosplayers, the “Best of Anime 2015,” is slated from Sept. 19-20.
MIBF is organized by Primetrade Asia, Inc. in partnership with Asian Catholic Communicators Inc., Book Development Association of the Philippines, Philippine Booksellers Association Inc., and the Overseas Publishers Representatives Organization of the Philippines.
