The International Book Festival Al Ain 2024, organized by the Abu Dhabi Center for the Arabic Language, noted a significant increase in the number of submissions from publishers for participation in its 15th edition. The number of submissions reached 260, which is 73% more than the previous year. 137 participants were able to take advantage of the 10% early registration discount.
The center announced the postponement of the festival dates for this year - it will start on November 17 and run until the 23rd of the same month, instead of the previously scheduled November 18-24, to accommodate changes in the program of events. This year, the festival will cover an area of 2472 square meters, which was fully booked before the end of registration on September 19. 75% of the booths were booked in the first week of the application period.
