The world’s largest floating book fair will be open to the public!

Logos Hope, the world’s largest floating book fair, is returning to Gqeberha, South Africa.

Many may remember the previous visit in November 2016, when around 36,000 visitors were welcomed
up the gangways. Now, Logos Hope will be making another visit!

Logos Hope’s onboard book fair offers an expanded selection of over 5,000 different titles of books at affordable prices. They cover a wide range of subjects including science, sports, hobbies, cookery, arts, medicine, languages and faith. With children’s titles, academic texts, dictionaries, atlases and more, the book fair is something the whole family can enjoy.

The Visitor Experience Deck, open to the public, beckons exploration. From the Welcome Area, offering an introduction to the vessel through a short movie and interactive displays, to the International Café, where delightful treats like ice cream, drinks, and snacks are available for purchase, there is something for everyone to enjoy.

Logos Hope will open to the public at the Port of Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth) from 23 Feb – 17 Mar 2024.
