Ho Chi Minh City continued to make a strong impression with its participation in the 2026 Frankfurt Book Fair (Frankfurter Buchmesse), taking place from October 7 to 11, marking an important step in bringing the image of Viet Nam, its people, and its culture to the world.

Viet Nam continued to assert its position at the 77th Frankfurt Book Fair 2025 with a 100-sq.m. book space located in Hall 5.1 — a central and convenient location within the exhibition centre. More than 20 Vietnamese publishers and cultural organisations participated, introducing international visitors to over 1,200 titles across various fields.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, in coordination with Ha Noi, Ho Chi Minh City, the Viet Nam Publishers’ Association and several publishing and distribution units, organised the opening ceremony of the Viet Nam Book Space at the Frankfurt Book Fair 2025, the world’s largest book event, on October 15.
