Just one day to go before the doors open to the China Shanghai International Children’s Book Fair (CCBF) 2025—a place where imagination runs wild and stories take on a life of their own. Organized by BolognaFiere China, the fair stands as Asia’s leading professional event for children’s publishing and content, and it’s about to welcome thousands of visitors from around the world to celebrate the art of storytelling.
As you pack your bags tonight, take a deep breath and let the anticipation sink in. Tomorrow, you’ll step into a literary wonderland where books aren’t just objects—they’re living worlds. Charge your devices, empty your tote bag, and get plenty of rest, because you’ll need energy for all the exploring, networking, and discovering that awaits. Every booth, every panel, and every creative display will tell a story worth remembering.
For authors and illustrators, this is your moment to connect, collaborate, and shine. The Copyright Zone (Hall 1 / 2A17) is the hub for meaningful exchange—where rights professionals, publishers, and agents gather to bring new stories to global audiences. ARPress welcomes you to visit and discover publishing opportunities designed to amplify your creative voice. Whether you’re seeking translation partners or exploring distribution, this is the place where creative dreams turn into tangible possibilities.
For families and educators, tomorrow marks a journey into the heart of imagination. You’ll witness storytelling sessions that enchant, workshops that inspire creativity, and book signings that make lifelong memories for children. The fair’s official program also includes professional talks about early childhood education, digital learning, and the future of reading—valuable for teachers and parents alike.
And don’t forget the joy of discovery. Wander through the pavilions, browse international exhibits, and embrace the excitement that fills every corner of the venue. There’s something extraordinary about watching children light up when they find a story that speaks to them—it’s a reminder of why CCBF continues to grow as one of the world’s premier literary events.
Just one more sleep until the fair begins!
