The Monaco International Book Fair will once again open its doors at Grimaldi Forum, a glass and light jewel overlooking the sea. Over these two days, this space will become a city of words where novelists, essayists, scientists, historians, thinkers and literature lovers will meet – all members of a prestigious ensemble cast.

Voices from every corner of the world will share their stories, their research, their imaginative worlds. Novels will dialogue with essays, literature with science, memory with the future. At each encounter, an idea will be born, a perspective will shift, a curiosity will awaken. For your book fair is not simply a gathering of authors. It is a moment of collective respite. A place where one listens, where one questions, where one discovers. A space where readers meet those who shape the stories and thoughts of our time.

This 15th edition promises to be a great moment of sharing, curiosity and pleasure. So welcome!
