Organizers have decided to extend Casablanca's National Used Book Fair by an additional week, following strong turnout from reading enthusiasts and visitors looking for books at affordable prices.

Used Books as an Economic Alternative

For many Moroccan readers, used books offer an important economic alternative amid the relatively rising prices of new publications, which explains the growing appeal of this type of fair in major cities.

Details of the Extension

According to organizers, closing the fair on its original date was reconsidered given the continued flow of visitors, leading to the decision to extend it in response to this unexpected turnout.

Casablanca as a Cultural Events Hub

The success of this edition reflects Casablanca's growing role as a venue for major cultural events in Morocco, amid ongoing efforts to encourage reading and publishing across the kingdom.
