COVID-19 and the bookfair

The indoor venue's capacity is capped at 200. Once this is reached we'll be counting heads in/out.

There'll be additional space in the gardens next to the venue, but again this is limited capacity.

Stalls have been limited to stallholders from London and surrounding areas and we ask that people do not travel cross-country for this event. There are regional bookfairs coming up in Bradford, Manchester, Newcastle, presumably Edinburgh.

With 16 days left until the Anarchist Bookfair in London, we'd like to share our poster for the first time and address a few things.

Firstly, the poster is a collaboration. Dr. Zadok penned the background, Morgasmik illustrated the foreground and the Bookfair crew edited it together. We'd like to thank both artists for their contributions and tolerance of our edits and changes.

Check them out:

https://anarchistbookfair.london/apply/workshop

Hi. A small update:

due to the ongoing pandemic, we decided to take a few extra precautions - one of which is the decision that we will not be holding any workshops on the day of the bookfair.

We will hold digital sessions on the 12th instead!

If you'd like to present a talk or workshop on the 12th, fill in the form here: https://anarchistbookfair.london/apply/workshop

If you would like to host a workshop in the week preceding as part of Antiuniversity Festival, go to https://antiuniversity.org

The application forms for stalls and workshops are now live on our website:

https://anarchistbookfair.london/apply/stall

https://anarchistbookfair.london/apply/workshop

The deadline is 11th August.

To book a stall or a workshop for the Bookfair day, please get in touch with the Bookfair Collective early, as spaces might be limited. The physical event has been scaled down in order to manage the risk of COVID-19, and we will reassess the ongoing situation.

Antiuniversity events will be programmed in the usual way, directly through the Antiuni website. Submissions will be open 3-24 July and the programme will go live in early August.
