Abu Dhabi Book Fair adds 7 nations
The Abu Dhabi International Book Fair, in its 35th edition, held at the Adnec Centre from September 13 to 18, celebrates the participation of 95 countries and hosts for the first time seven new countries: Kosovo, Colombia, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, and Cuba. This highlights its status as a global cultural platform and a driver of the knowledge economy. The fair focuses on promoting civilizational dialogue, intellectual exchange, and the development of cultural and creative industries. It honors the personality of Al-Khalil ibn Ahmad Al-Farahidi and features a display of the novel "Don Quixote" as a symbol of worldwide cultural heritage. Additionally, it aims to reinforce the Arabic language and culture as bridges for creativity and communication, coinciding with the UAE's declaration of 2026 as the "Year of the Family" to strengthen the role of culture in community building.
