The fair

TIBE is one of the more author-accessible fairs in East Asia: a public exhibition with a professional programme and a lively independent scene. The 2026 edition ran 3–8 February. The 2027 dates follow the usual early-February pattern — confirm on the organiser site.

Advice for visiting authors

  • Taiwanese publishing is distinct from the PRC market. Do not treat them as a single conversation.
  • Independent and literary houses are the realistic walk-up targets.
