MINSK, 12 March (BelTA) – The 32nd edition of the Minsk International Book Fair opened at 14 Pobeditelei Avenue in Minsk on 12 March, BelTA has learned.
Since Belarus holds chairmanship of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) in 2025, the central exhibitor will be an interactive collective stand of the EAEU member states devoted to a common theme - the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory in the Great Patriotic War.
Each day of the fair will celebrate a member state of the EAEU:
12 March - the Day of the Republic of Kazakhstan,
13 March - the Day of the Kyrgyz Republic,
14 March - the Day of the Russian Federation,
15 March - the Day of the Republic of Belarus,
16 March - the Day of the Republic of Armenia.
The program will traditionally include the “International” and “Educational” quarters.
The landmark events of the exhibition include the international symposium of writers “The Writer and Time” with the participation of representatives of CIS and non-CIS countries; a ceremony to award the winners of the national competition “The Art of the Book”.
The Book Train carrying authors and publicists will arrive in Minsk on 14 March. They will present their works at the exhibition venues and other venues. This project was launched by the Russian Federation.
A temporary bus route No. 935 will be available on the days when the book fair will be held. The bus will be running between the Nemiga metro station and the exhibition venue from 10:00 to 19:00 every 15-20 minutes.
