]]> Rescheduled for March 2022

Every two years the Provincial Booksellers Fairs Association (PBFA) in the UK organizes the Oxford Fine Press Book Fair with the assistance of the UK team of the Fine Press Book Association. The Fair runs over a Saturday and Sunday with around 100 stands for presses, dealers, suppliers, and related organizations. 

The Fine Press Book Association organizes a Fair Dinner held at St Cross College on the Saturday evening and a program of three lectures and the presentation of various awards on the Sunday.

The 2020 Fair was originally planned for March 28-29 but was postponed to November 21-22, 2020 due to Covid. This fair, also, was cancelled due to Covid and has now been rescheduled for March 2022. All being well, it will be held, as originally planned, in the Examination Schools in central Oxford. As soon as there are firm details from the PBFA they will post them here: www.fpba.com/fpba-events/oxford-book-fair/

The Lone Oak Press was scheduled to be one of the exhibitors in March and November, and is now planning to attend the fair in March 2022 depending on the status of the pandemic.
