Event Information

 The biggest and best book fair on the south coast is back! This is our fifth year and the Brighton book fair is now a favourite with dealers and collectors alike. This year’s event promises to be bigger than ever and if you have not visited us before then you’re in for a treat – it’s like a massive second-hand bookshop coming to town for just one day!  

The main hall at the Racecourse will be packed with lovely old books, maps, prints, posters, postcards, ephemera and more. You’ll find everything from ancient handwritten documents to kitschy paperbacks. There’s something to suit all tastes and all pockets.

Brighton Racecourse is the perfect venue. It is on the edge of town so driving is easy and there is free parking all day long. There is also a great café and snack bar so you can make a day of it.
