childrens_book_festival_sml.jpgCBI is committed to hosting and facilitating a wide variety of brilliant book-themed events for both young readers and adults interested in Children's books and literature.

In addition to the Children's Book Festival every October and our  Annual Conference in May, we also run a series of other exciting events for young people and adults throughout the year (click here to view our online listings calender).

CBI is also pleased to support other organisations and arts festivals in their children's programming initiatives, which this year include Cúirt International Literary Festival, Farmleigh House (OPW), Riverbank Arts Centre, Trinity Access Week and the Dublin Book Festival.
