Amsterdam
Book Event

Welcome!

The Amsterdam Book Event (ABE) is all about the English-language book. Eight major British and American publishers are coming to the Netherlands especially for this event to inspire booksellers with the best yet-to-be-published titles from their offerings.

In short: the books you should not miss in the coming period.
In addition to fiction and non-fiction, various art and illustrated titles are also featured - organiser Van Ditmar finds it important to provide you as a bookseller with broad information.

On this website you will find all the information surrounding the event, from frequently asked questions to, of course, the agenda as soon as it is ready.

Location: Pllek

Industrial, raw and laidback: Pllek is the ideal location for the Amsterdam Book Event. Located on the historic NDSM wharf on the IJ, with fantastic views of Amsterdam's skyline.
