Buch Wien

Readings, autograph sessions, discussions and new publications of all genres - fiction and crime, cooking and non-fiction, world literature - are part of the program.

The children's and youth program includes workshops, readings and talks on various topics such as comics, classic media and social networks and journalistic production.

The organizer of the fair is Literatur- und Contentmarketing Ges.m.b.H., owned by the Main Association of the Austrian Book Trade (HVB).

[1] With the introduction of the 2008 Buch Wien, there is also the newly created Reading Festival Week, which is supported by the City of Vienna and the Federal Ministry of Education.

[3] Buch Wien has existed in its current form since 2008 and replaced Book Week, which had been held in the Vienna City Hall since 1948 with free admission.

On Wednesday evening, the exhibit hall opens its doors and invites readers to a series of exciting and entertaining events, including a concert, numerous readings and book signings, and a public contest.
