Event Information

The PBFA welcomes you to the Harrogate Book Fair, once again located in the Garden Room at The Old Swan Hotel in Harrogate. The hotel has parking available, a cafe on site, and a central location that is only a short walk from the station.
  
The hotel itself is no stranger to the literary world bearing in mind it is the location for the annual Theakston's Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival. It is also the chosen destination for the Queen of Crime herself.  When Agatha Christie's disappearance sparked a nationwide search, she was finally tracked down to this beautiful Harrogate hotel. 
  
PBFA book dealers will be travelling from all over the UK to display and sell their wide range of rare books, specialising in both fiction and non-fiction. There will be a wide range of subjects on display, offered by specialist dealers with knowledge and expertise.
