Brno literary
Brno is expecting a rich literary autumn this year. The city, which until now had no major book fair, is to host three events for book enthusiasts within a few weeks. A new one is the Kniha Brno book fair at the Brno Exhibition Grounds, which will focus on fiction and popular genres such as science fiction and detective stories. Visitors will have the opportunity to meet bestselling Czech and international authors. It will be held in parallel with Comic Con Junior.
Kniha Brno, BVV Výstaviště 1, Pavilon E, 1.–3. 11. 2024
Three weeks later, readers will have the opportunity to attend a more intimate event in the pleasant surroundings of the Moravian Library. The second year of the Masaryk University's Advent Book Fair and Literary Festival Books in Brno will offer visitors a wide range of fiction, academic and popular books and, last but not least, children's literature. There will be a rich accompanying programme of author readings, discussions, workshops for children and adults, and musical performances. The event is organised by the University and its Cultural Centre as a non-commercial event with an emphasis on education and the promotion of reading. Admission is free.

The autumn literary events will be complemented by the Brno Book Open festival, which will feature the presentation and sale of books on art, architecture and design. It will take place at KUMST, with an accompanying programme at the Café Kaprál Residence. The organisers are the TIC Gallery, the VUTIUM Publishing House and the Brno House of Arts.
