The Provincial Booksellers Fairs Association hosts more events in this sector than any other organiser, writes Rachel Fellman.
It has been getting its roster of events back to some kind of normality this year, with about 50-60 fairs being held in 2022. They take place around the UK, from local events to bigger premier fairs as well as a monthly online offering.
In May and June alone, there are PBFA fairs in venues ranging from Abergavenny and Stratfordupon- Avon to Edinburgh and the Scottish Borders. This spread offers the opportunity for almost everyone connected with the book trade to get to at least one PBFA event near to them
