Event Information

The Ilkley Book Fair is a long running and friendly event.  We are delighted that the fair is going ahead and look forward to seeing customers old and new.  Entrance to the fair is free.

Social distancing measures will be in place and all visitors are strongly urged to wear a mask.  

The King's Hall and Winter Garden venue is conveniently situated opposite the Ilkley train and bus station - an easy level walk from The Grove and central car park.  About fifty dealers will be attending, many from Yorkshire and Lancashire but from as far afield as Scotland and the South Coast offering thousands of items covering a huge variety of second-hand and antiquarian, fiction, non-fiction and related ephemera for collectors and browsers alike, from pocket money prices and beyond. 

The cafe will be open for light refreshments, sandwiches, drinks and snacks.

Ilkley is a lovely market town surrounded by beautiful countryside, wonderful walking and numerous shops, cafes and pubs.
