Frankfurter Buchmesse is the most important international trading place for content, from novels and children's books to academic databases. Publishing professionals from around the world meet with partners from the technology sector and from related creative industries, such as film and games. At the same time, the Book Fair is also a huge cultural event which, for five days every year, turns Frankfurt on the Main into the centre of the international media world.

France is the Guest of Honour 2017  

Since 1976, every year the Frankfurt Book Fair has welcomed a country or region as its Guest of Honour. After Flanders and the Netherlands in 2016, France will present itself to the fair's international public as Guest of Honour at the 2017 Frankfurt Book Fair.
