The highly anticipated Eduvos Durban International Book Fair 2024 will take place from 27 November to 1 December at the Eduvos Umhlanga Campus. Durban is Africa’s only UNESCO City of Literature and renowned for its rich history of writers, poets, playwrights, creatives, and literary events according to festival director, Kiru Naidoo.
This year marks the third annual fair, themed "Once upon a time ...", emphasizing the importance of going back to basics in fostering a reading culture. "The theme responds to the urgent call for action after a recent international study revealed that 81% of grade four learners in South Africa are unable to read with comprehension in any language," added Naidoo.
The Eduvos Durban International Book Fair promises to be a platform for vibrant discussions, inspiring readings, and a diverse array of activities aimed at promoting literacy and a passion for books. The organisers are confident that last year's record breaking attendance of over 7000 participants will be exceeded as the stellar lineup of local and international authors takes shape. Authors, poets, academics, creatives, and literary enthusiasts can sign up at www.madeindurban.co.za is until 21 October. General entrance to the fair is free with ticketed entrance to selected workshops and training events.
The media launch will be livestreamed on the Durban International Book Fair Facebook group for media unable to be physically present https://www.facebook.com/groups/627918929261367/?ref=share_group_link
