Kuala Lumpur Reading Festival 2026

The Kuala Lumpur Reading Festival is a two-day celebration taking place from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM at GMBB Kuala Lumpur.
A celebration of reading for the distracted generation.
Slow down, unplug, and rediscover the joy of missing out — and the pleasure of being fully present.
Explore more than 30 booths featuring booksellers, independent publishers, and book lovers from across the Chinese, English, and Malay reading communities. Whether you're searching for your next great read or simply browsing, there's something for everyone.
Across the two days, we've also curated 20+ engaging programmes, including:
• Author talks
• Book clubs
• Open mic sessions
• Conversations with publishing and literary professionals
And of course, plenty of unique experiences you won't find elsewhere:
• A 24-hour bookstore experience
• Phone-free challenges
• A sunrise book walk
• Improvised poetry creation
• Live music performances
• And many more surprises
We'd love your help in spreading the word. Bring your friends, family, and fellow book lovers, and join us for the very first Kuala Lumpur Reading Festival.
See you there!
