This year the Ministry of Culture made a selection of Bulgarian books and provided funding to more than twenty publishing houses to enable their participation in the fair. The books selected are mainly works by Bulgarian authors, reference books, books about Bulgaria’s historical and cultural heritage and natural landmarks.

This year’s Guest of Honour at the fair will be the Turkish Republic.
