Time to rebel ... with books! From February 12 to 14, 2026, the BiblioMania Fair takes over the Refectory of the Cordeliers in the 6th arrondissement for its 19th edition. Spread across 600 square meters, 45 professional booksellers will showcase a stunning collection of rare books, manuscripts, prints, posters, and photographs centered around the theme of Revolution.

Attention book lovers on the edge of their seats: February 12 to 14, 2026, the BiblioMania Book Fair is shaking up the historic Refectory of the Cordeliers, in the literary heart of the 6th arrondissement of Paris, just steps from the Odéon Theatre. From 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., this 19th edition spreads across 600 m2 a finely curated revolution of paper within the historic setting of the Latin Quarter.

The theme on display? The Revolution. A bold black-and-white motif running throughout the collection, echoed in a wide range of documents from the very first editions to today. Here, history is literally turned page by page: handwritten notes, printed works, sketches, paintings, and engravings come together to form an intricate, visually striking chronology.

Around 45 professional booksellers are standing their ground with a curated selection of treasures: rare and second-hand books, manuscripts, prints, engravings, newspapers and magazines, comics, postcards and chromos, stocks and bonds, advertising posters, collectibles and cinema memorabilia, decorative and collectible cardboard objects, drawings, paintings, photographs, and records… All these items bring ideas to life and ignite the collector’s spirit.

BiblioMania is a 600-square-meter showcase where every booth becomes a platform. For three days, the past is revisited, displayed, and brought to life through sound in a one-of-a-kind venue. Never before has the revolution been so well connected!
