Step into the tactile world of I AM PAPER for Publishing at Hall 3.0, Stand H126, and discover the materials that give ideas, images, and unforgettable stories a home.
Frankfurt Turns the Page Once Again
From 7–11 October 2026, the Frankfurt Book Fair returns for its 78th edition, bringing together the people, ideas, and materials that shape the publishing world. This year, Czechia takes centre stage as Guest of Honour under the evocative motto “A Country on the Coast.” Inspired by Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale, the theme opens a window onto a literary culture where rich traditions meet a vibrant contemporary voice.
Shaped by a wealth of literary traditions and a vibrant contemporary creative scene, Czechia offers a unique blend of classical influences and modern perspectives. Visitors to this year’s Frankfurt Book Fair can look forward to a diverse and engaging programme of events highlighting the country’s literary and cultural landscape.
Paper Takes Centre Stage

Visitors can explore a broader selection of trusted publishing grades created to carry stories from first idea to finished book.

Touch, Compare, Imagine
From the first spark of an idea to the turning of a page, paper is the silent companion behind every book, every illustration, and every creative expression. It is the medium through which authors share their voices, designers shape experiences, and readers discover new worlds. At this year’s Frankfurt Book Fair, we celebrate not only the stories that inspire us, but also the material that makes them possible.
Paper is best understood through the senses. Feel the difference between surfaces, compare shades and weights, and see how the right choice can transform a cover, an edition, or an entire reading experience. The Europapier Team will be on hand to share fresh ideas and practical expertise, helping visitors find a paper solution that feels just right for their next print project.
