The pages of books are opened... at Toptani Center!

The beautiful tradition of the book fair in the premises of Toptani Center, started since 2022, will continue for the third consecutive year, starting on April 1st, on "World Children's Book Day," and continuing until April 30th.

The fair booths will showcase around 2000 book titles, with over 700 of them being new books by Albanian and foreign authors. The first two weeks will be focused on children's literature, promoting works by Albanian authors such as Mitrush Kuteli, Adelina Mamaqi, Rudina Çupi, Rovena Rrozhani, Adelina Mamaqi, Edi Gogu, and others.

Throughout these days, physical and online meetings will be organized at the fair with our authors of children's and adult books; interactive and competitive activities based on the theme "I am a book," which will be organized with students from 9-year and high schools across Albania; awarding for the "Best Book of the Year"; book signings by their authors (such as Ismail Kadare, Ben Blushi, and Mira Meksi).

Undoubtedly, there will also be offers up to -50% off on book purchases not only at the fair booths, for the fair visitors but also on the online fair "Book Days" at Bukinist.al (the largest online Albanian book platform), which the Toptani Center is organizing.

The most special part is that there will be over 2500 online titles on offer going up to 50%, although there will be a limited number of copies available.

The activities that will extend over 30 days will culminate on April 23rd, on "World Book Day," where Bukinist.al and the blog Leximtari.al will announce 6 winners, for the best publications of the past year in categories: children's book, Albanian poetry, Albanian novel, translated novel, non-fiction book, and business and personal development book.

The book days at Toptani will bring their recommendations in the categories of business books, personal development, biographies, novels, sagas, and those of the mystery and thriller genre. For young readers, ABC books, fairy tales, encyclopedias, but also books to help with school programs will be offered.

Toptani Shopping Center (part of Gener 2) and Bukinist.al (part of Aladini Trade Partner, the largest online sales company in Albania) are joining forces again to further promote reading and create opportunities for reading, in every environment, because the book should be wherever people are... even at Toptani Center.

You are welcomed!
