Newcastle Global Book Crawl


Join Newcastle book lovers on the Global Book Crawl! The Global Book Crawl (GBC) will bring together bookstores and book lovers from around in the world, with a simple yet powerful idea: to unite local bookshops in a celebration of local literature, community and culture. Participants visit multiple shops, connecting with the local book culture, discovering hidden gems, and highlighting the vital role of bookstores. See the participating bookstores linked at the website.

Participating GBC bookstores strengthen community bonds with book lovers in their area and through collaboration with other local bookshops. Together, they create a united front that celebrates and supports authors, readers, and publishers: the whole local book culture. The Global Book Crawl promises to be a highlight for readers and retailers alike — a chance to rediscover the magic of local bookshops and the communities that keep them thriving.
