The Dublin Book Festival is one of Ireland’s most successful and vibrant book festivals, running since June 2006.

The annual public festival showcases, supports and develops Irish publishing by programming, publicising and selling Irish published books, their authors, editors and contributors – all in an entertaining, festive, friendly and accessible environment that reflects the creativity and personality of the Irish publishing sector and its authors.

The Dublin Book Festival 2019 will take place from 14 – 17, November, with Smock Alley Theatre again being the festival hub.

There will also be events in the National Library on Kildare Street, the Gutter Bookshop on Cow’s Lane in Temple Bar, the Irish Writers Centre on Parnell Square, GPO Witness History Centre, Science Gallery at TCD and EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum.
