3rd Edition of Ahmedabad International Book Festival
The Ahmedabad International Book Festival is still young, but it has grown rapidly.
The international edition was launched in 2024, when the earlier Amdavad National Book Fair was elevated into the Ahmedabad International Book Festival. National Book Trust described the 2024 event as the inaugural edition of AIBF at the Sabarmati Riverfront.
That makes the Ahmedabad International Book Festival 2026 its 3rd edition.
The scale has also expanded considerably. In 2025, National Book Trust reported more than 300 publishers from across India, with the festival spread across more than one lakh square feet and attracting large crowds.
For book lovers in Ahmedabad and across Gujarat, the festival has become a major destination to discover books, publishers, authors and literary activities.

Sell Your Used Books at Ahmedabad International Book Festival
Here is something that makes the KharidobechoBooks stall different from a regular bookstore.
You don't necessarily have to arrive at our stall only to buy books. You can bring your old books with you too.
As the name KharidobechoBooks suggests, our platform allows readers to both buy and sell books.
If your bookshelf contains books that you have already read and don't plan to read again, you can bring your pre-loved, pre-owned or used books to our stall at the Ahmedabad International Book Festival.
Instead of leaving those books unused on a shelf, you can give them an opportunity to find another reader.
Can I Sell Just One Used Book at the Festival?
Yes!
This is one of the major advantages of selling your books directly at our book-fair stall.
Under our regular doorstep service, readers need to have a minimum of 25 books to qualify for free doorstep pickup, subject to our applicable terms.
But when you visit the KharidobechoBooks Stall at Ahmedabad International Book Festival, there is no need to bring 25 books.
You can bring even a single book to our stall for selling.
So whether you have 1 book, 5 books, 10 books or a larger collection, you can bring your books while visiting the festival and speak with our team.
Donate Your Pre-Loved Books in Ahmedabad
Don't want to sell your books?
You can also explore the option of donating your pre-loved books through KharidobechoBooks.
Books are meant to be read. A book sitting unused on one bookshelf could become another reader's favourite book.
Our aim is to help books keep moving from one reader to another and encourage a more affordable and sustainable reading culture.
So before visiting the Ahmedabad International Book Festival, take another look at your bookshelf. If you find books you no longer need, bring them with you.
