Devon’s bookish event of the year is back! The sixth annual Exeter City of Literature Book Market is set to take over Exeter Quay on Sunday 7th June, from 11am to 4pm.
This year, The Book Market is set to take over Exeter Quay across three distinct zones of cultural entertainment. Piazza Terracina will be abuzz with independent bookshops, Exeter Custom House will play host to free literary activities, and the Transit Shed will be set up as the perfect quayside spot to experience a series of engaging Author Talks from Devon’s diverse storytellers.
Whether you're an avid reader, a budding writer, or simply looking for a unique way to spend a summery Sunday, this event is not to be missed.
