BookLife Bookfest is back, and it's here to stay!

You asked, we listened. Bookfest is happening this October Half-Term, and we'll open our doors for one day only, offering hundreds of brand-new children's fiction and non-fiction books for ages 0-12, all for no more than £1 per book.

Join us during half-term, from 10am-3pm on Wednesday, 28th October.

Entry is free for everyone, and as it's close to Halloween, we'll be giving out a goody bag to the first 50 children through our door.

The October Half-Term Bookfest is an in-person event, and you'll find us at Unit 2 Hansa Court, Lubeck Road, North Lynn Industrial Estate, King's Lynn, PE30 2HN. See the map below to see our current location.

Useful Information

BookLife Bookfests are events where children's books are available to purchase at clearance prices. Children's books are available from many of the top publishers for just £1, including our in-house publishers, BookLife Publishing.

Yes, the BookLife Bookfests take place at our site and are not an online event.

BookLife Bookfests take place at our site. You'll find us at Unit 2 Hansa Court, Lubeck Road, King's Lynn, PE30 2HN; just look out for the big BookLife Publishing sign.

We have very limited on-site parking with 11 spots, so we recommend walking or taking public transport to get to us. We're only a few-minute walk away from the bus stops on Edward Bennefer Way, Bergen Way and Reid Way.

We do share a car park with our neighbours, so if you do drive, we request that you be considerate to our neighbours and park in spots at the side and back of our building that are marked for BookLife Publishing.

If our car park is full, we request you park on Bergen Way and not on the road adjacent to us, as it's frequently used by lorries.

Yes, every book available during the BookLife Bookfest will cost no more than £1 per book.

We'll have a large selection of children's books on offer, from fiction, non-fiction, picture books, Hi-Lo, graphic novels, mystery boxes and much more. A lot of the stock on offer on the day is limited and first come, first served.

BookLife Bookfests usually take place during the half-term break. Make sure to follow our socials or join the Bookfest mailing list to find out when the next Bookfest is.

BookLife Bookfests can get quite busy, especially just after we first open, with some queues to purchase books, so we kindly ask for some patience. If we get really busy, we may ask people who are waiting to enter to disperse a bit, as our main entrance is located in a car park, which can also get busy during the day. There are some benches and shade near our site.

Of course you can; they're the best at choosing books! We just want to highlight that we are located on an industrial estate, which can get busy with lorries and may be unsafe for children if they are not supervised.

Yes, we offer disabled access through our front door, which has a ramp. Some of our hallways are tight, so we'll do our best to accommodate disabled persons. If any help is required, please ask a member of our staff.

Yes, we have mixed-gender toilets with cubicles that will be accessible in the Bookfest zone.

We do have a disabled toilet on site; however, it is not accessible in the Bookfest zone. Please ask a member of staff if you need the disabled toilets.

We can take both cash and card payments from all major credit companies. However, we are unable to take card payments on purchases under £5.
