Vilniaus knygų mugė 2026

We invite you to the 26th Vilnius Book Fair - a meeting where books become conversations, and readers and creators meet in one space. It is the biggest literary and cultural event in the Baltic States and a tradition that brings togetherness, curiosity and the joy of discovery back to Vilnius every year.
This year's theme is "The word is looking for a person". It reminds us that literature is not only a text, but also a connection: between the creator and the reader, between stories and experiences, between silent reading and loud music.
A lively program awaits you at the fair: premieres of new books, meetings with authors, discussions, talks, concerts, exhibitions, creative workshops and activities for all generations. Here, reading becomes an experience — from the first page of the book to a personal autograph.

News and guests
At the fair, you can often find books that have just arrived from the printing press. Readers at the fair can be the first to purchase the latest works by Lithuanian and foreign authors. The tradition remains - after visiting the events, you can get an autograph from your favorite writer. Publishers are also inviting special guests, who will be announced closer to the event.

Hall of young readers
A wide selection of new books, creative workshops and events on stage await visitors in the young readers' hall. There will be an open Library space organized by Lithuanian librarians, and children's book creators will be invited to creative activities. At the youth point, it will be possible to discuss topics that concern young readers.

Music hall
As always, the music hall will surprise you with a versatile program where most Lithuanian musicians meet under one roof. It is the largest music publishing fair in Lithuania, where concerts, talks and meetings will take place. In 2026, the Music Hall will host for the 11th time.

This year's theme "Word is looking for a person" invites you to stop, hear, talk and experience literature as a living connection — between works, people, voices and experiences.
