What you get

Everything set up to put your book in the right hands

Every part of how we show up at the fair is built around making readers feel welcome, helping your book find the person it was meant for, and making sure you take home every rupee it earns.

🛋️

A Stall People Love Being Inside

Designed to feel like a bookshop, not a trade expo. Readers stop, browse, and ask questions. Your book gets real time and attention with the people most likely to buy it.

🎁

Bookoholics Customised Goodie Bags

Every reader who picks up a book gets a Bookoholics goodie bag they'll remember. Packed with things readers genuinely love and keep.

📖 Bookmarks 📌 Pin Badges + more surprises
💬

Real Conversations with Readers

Our team talks to readers about what they love to read, not just what's on the shelf. Your book gets recommended the way a friend recommends it, at the right moment, to the right person.

📦

Restocked the Moment It Sells

As soon as a copy leaves the shelf, another one takes its place. Your book is never shown as unavailable, and no sale slips through because of an empty display.

🎙️

Author Interviews, Published for Keeps

We film and publish your author interview, giving your story a platform that works long after the fair closes. Readers discover you before, during, and months after the event.

📱

Your Book Reaches Nearly a Million Readers

The Bookoholics community of 951K+ readers on Instagram follows the fair in real time. Your book, your face, and your story reach readers who are already looking for their next read.

The part authors care about most

You keep every rupee for every copy sold.

No commission, no platform fee, no percentage taken. What a reader pays for your book comes to you in full, every single time.

Why it works

What four editions have taught us

Bookoholics stall signs at the World Book Fair
01 · The atmosphere
The stall speaks before anyone says a word.

Every detail of how we set up, from the signage to the layout, is designed to make readers feel something. When a reader smiles at a sign before they have even picked up a book, you know the stall is already doing its job. That energy translates directly into sales.

Book display and goodies at the Bookoholics stall
02 · The goodies
Readers remember the books that came with something extra.

Each goodie bag is assembled to match the book and the author. Customised bookmarks, Bookoholics pin badges, and thoughtful extras that turn a purchase into a moment readers tell other people about. Word of mouth starts at the stall.

03 · The community
The fair does not end when the stall closes.

The Bookoholics community of nearly a million readers follows the fair in real time. Every post, reel, and author interview reaches people at home who will search for your book that same evening. The footfall at the fair is only where it begins.

Where we have been

Four editions. Four years of showing up.

Each year we come back, we understand a little more about what makes a reader stop, stay, and leave with a book in their hands.

FAQ

Questions people usually ask

Not a rupee. Every copy your book sells at the fair comes to you in full. No commission, no transaction fee, no percentage taken at any point. You keep every rupee for every copy sold.
Every reader who buys a book gets a Bookoholics customised goodie bag with a curated bookmark and a Bookoholics pin badge. These are designed and produced by us so they feel personal, not generic. Readers keep them, share photos, and remember the experience.
We restock the moment a copy sells. Your book is never shown as unavailable and no sale is ever missed because of an empty shelf. Restocking is built into how we operate from day one.
Absolutely. Authors being at the stall is one of the things that makes our setup special. We coordinate a signing session and film your author interview while you are there. That interview then lives on our social media long after the fair ends.
We post from the stall in real time across our Instagram (951K+) and Threads (113K+) channels. Your book gets featured in posts, reels, and your author interview, reaching readers who are not at the fair too. Coverage continues before, during, and after the event.
