From November 22 to 25, 2024, the Espace Prémontrés in Liège will host the 53rd Used Book Fair organized by the Kiwanis Club of Liège. This unmissable cultural event is the ideal opportunity for reading lovers, the curious and families to discover more than 70,000 books sorted and classified by theme, at unbeatable prices.
The fair, which attracts more than 5,000 visitors each year from Wallonia, Flanders and neighboring countries (Netherlands, France, Switzerland), is recognized as one of the largest second-hand book fairs in Wallonia. Novels, comics, manga, paperbacks, works in foreign languages and specialized books: there is something for everyone, with continuous replenishment of the shelves throughout the four days, communicate the organizers.
For the youngest and fans of imaginary stories, a heated room is specially dedicated to children’s books, with a vast selection of comics, manga, stories and educational works.
A commitment to serving children
Beyond its cultural aspect, the fair has a solidarity dimension. All profits are in fact donated to associations which support children in difficulty, mainly in the Liège region. In 50 years, numerous initiatives in favor of disadvantaged children have been able to see the light of day thanks to the funds collected.
On Tuesday, a day reserved for disadvantaged children, last year nearly 400 young people were able to leave with books offered by the organization, thus strengthening access to reading for all.
