RIYADH — Saudi Arabia, led by the Literature, Publishing, and Translation Commission, is set to participate in the London International Book Fair 2025, scheduled to take place from March 11 to 13 at the Olympia Exhibition Centre. The Kingdom's presence at the literary event underscores its commitment to strengthening cultural ties with Britain, fostering knowledge exchange, and promoting collaboration in literature, publishing, and translation. It also aims to enhance the global presence of Saudi publishing houses and literary agencies, providing them with greater exposure to international markets. Saudi Arabia's delegation to the London International Book Fair 2025 will feature key government agencies actively involved in language, literature, and cultural preservation, including the King Salman Global Academy for Arabic Language, the King Abdulaziz Foundation for Research and Archives, the King Abdulaziz Public Library, the King Fahd National Library, and the Publishing Association.

The London International Book Fair is one of the world's premier publishing events, attracting renowned authors, publishers, literary agents, and industry experts. By leading Saudi Arabia's involvement in international book fairs, the Literature, Publishing, and Translation Commission seeks to connect Saudi publishers and literary agencies with international publishing houses and provide them with new opportunities for collaboration and growth. This initiative aligns with the Kingdom's broader strategy to expand its cultural influence, support the growth of its publishing industry, and engage with global trends and best practices in literature and translation.
