Love Your Bookshop Day

Mark your calendar!

The next Love Your Bookshop Day will be:
Saturday 11th October 2025

Love Your Bookshop Day is an annual celebration of everything that makes local bookshops special—from knowledgeable staff and handpicked book selections to fun events that bring authors, readers, and stories together.

Join the festivities! Bookshops around the country will be hosting exciting events, competitions, and activities to bring the joy of books and reading to life. Come along and discover all your local bookshop has to offer—meet authors, find new reads, and be part of a community that shares your love of books!

To celebrate Love Your Bookshop Day 2025, we would love to spotlight real life stories of people who have (re)discovered themselves following a visit to a local bookshop. If you’ve had an experience that you would like to share with the world, then please let us know here. It could be anything – from meeting your partner at your local bookshop, finding comfort during a difficult time while chatting to a bookseller, or simply stumbling on a book that changed your life.
