Exciting! Book Week 2026 is on now
Aug 24, 2026
This is the 80th Book Week. It's organised by the Children's Book Council of Australia and this year's theme is Symphony of Stories.
Get ready to see a lot of dress ups this week. Have fun! And celebrate stories and creativity.
If schools can't get the incursion they'd like in Book Week, many alter their school book week date.
All of our book week shows offer a different show each year, so you could book in now, knowing there'll be a show next year aligned to the theme, once it's announced.
Check out our book week shows for 2026, knowing they'll be available with a new show, in 2027.
