7. Kölner Bücherfest

In the organizer's words:

Welcome to the book festival at the Altes Pfandhaus

The Cologne Book Festival is a tribute to the diversity and commitment of the region's independent bookshops and publishers.

Discover a wide selection of books and the latest publishing programs. Be inspired by current perspectives and stories.

A festival of diversity

The book festival offers a varied supporting program for young and old. Adults can enjoy exciting readings and stimulating discussions, while creative activities are available for younger visitors. Photo and paper art exhibitions round off the program.
Whether you are passionate about reading or simply want to enjoy the special atmosphere - there is something for everyone here.

The perfect backdrop

The Alte Pfandhaus provides the ideal backdrop for this literary event. Visit the exhibition hall, listen to the readings in the atmospheric concert hall or retreat to the lounge to read or chat over a drink in peace and quiet. You can enjoy the beautiful weather in the courtyard during the breaks "between the lines"...
