SUMMARY:Oxford Indie Book Fair
DESCRIPTION:The Oxford Indie Book Fair (OXIB) – a vibrant celebration of independent publishing, bold storytelling, and creative community returns to the festival, bringing together independent presses, authors, poets, illustrators, and readers, for a day dedicated to discovering books you won’t find everywhere else.\nMore than just a marketplace, OXIB is a meeting place – a space for conversation, collaboration, and inspiration. Visitors meet authors face-to-face, hear the stories behind the stories, attend talks and readings, and connect with a thriving community that champions creativity and originality.\nWhether you’re a passionate reader, an aspiring writer, a publishing professional, or simply curious to explore something new, this day offers a welcoming atmosphere where independent voices take centre stage. Join us, and discover your next favourite book, author, or publisher!\nThere will be talks throughout the day, as well as a book launch slam, and a poetry slam, together with The Oxford Poetry Circle.\nSpeakers include winners of the Luxembourg Peace Prize, Professor Jake Lynch and Annabel McGoldrick, who will talk about the secret menace of deep fake AI; Ray Foulk delving into the extraordinary 1907 mystery of how and why Pablo Picasso invented modern art; and our huge festival fan, Hugh Warwick, whose latest book will be hitting the shelves this summer, who will be talking about the hidden history of hedgehogs!\nEntrance is free\nFurther information on the authors, talks, and book launches is coming soon.\n
