France Photobook

Les Rencontres d’Arles and France PhotoBook are delighted to announce that entries are open for the fourth edition of the Arles Books Fair, which will take place from Tuesday 8th to Saturday 12th July 2025 at the École nationale supérieure de la photographie (ENSP) and Collège Saint-Charles.

Every year since 2022, Arles Books Fair brings together about 70 publishers from twenty different countries, making it the largest international photography book fair. Arles Books Fair is an event of the Rencontres d’Arles opening week, which gathered 20 000 professionals and photography’s enthusiasts in 2024. 

Opened in 2019, the ENSP provides a bright space for publishers, alongside an official exhibition, at the centre of Les Rencontres d’Arles.

The Collège Saint-Charles, right in the very heart of the historic centre, welcomes us again in two spaces surrounded by a spacious and shaded courtyard. 

Arles Books Fair 2025, a celebration of the wealth and variety of publishing practices, will include a programme of events and book signings with photographers and authors in the ENSP and the Collège Saint-Charles.
