MIBF returns this September

The Manila International Book Fair (MIBF), the Philippines’ biggest and longest-running book event, makes its grand comeback from 10 to 14 September at the SMX Convention Center, Pasay City.

Spanning two floors of the SMX Convention Center, MIBF will feature an extensive marketplace of books alongside a packed schedule of special events, bringing together publishers, authors, educators, and readers of all ages.

This year’s MIBF carries the theme “Stories in Every Form” — a celebration of the rich and evolving world of storytelling that goes beyond the printed page. It highlights the many ways stories come to life today, from comics and graphic novels to digital platforms, audiobooks, and other creative formats.

“‘Stories in Every Form’ describes the dynamic nature of literature and content creation today. MIBF has always been a place of discovery, and this year, we are putting a special spotlight on how stories connect with us through various mediums,” said Irene Lloren, president of Primetrade Asia Inc., MIBF organizer.
