Stalls

Last year we had 90 stalls (up from 86 the year before). We are aiming for about the same this year. Last year we made a £900 loss, but a number of people helped out with donations and benefits so in the end we broke even. Therefore, we can keep the cost of both stalls and meetings the same as last year.
Stalls are £45 for a table which is roughly 5ft x 2ft. You can book half a stall for £22.50.
If you are prepared to give an hours labour contribution during the day (giving out programmes, rattling collection buckets, etc) we will reduce the cost of a full stall to £40 (£20 for ½ stalls).

If you want to book a stall just click here for a copy, fill out the form and post it back with a cheque. Bookings are confirmed when payment is received. You can also pay by paypal below and return the form to us be email.

It is possible we may reject your booking (Trots/people in political parties and stalls not related to anarchist or anarchist related activities please note). If you think this may mean you, please email us first to check. Also, because of the shortage of space, you may not get as much space as you asked for.

Meetings

We have six rooms available for meetings/speakers/discussions this year. Four of the rooms hold up to 70 people; one room holds about 100/120 people and the largest holds around 250. The meeting rooms, like last year, are £20 an hour except the two large meeting rooms, which are £40 an hour. In order to try and make our lives a little easier in the general confusion of the day, we ask groups to give us a name of someone who will be a contact for the meeting. As ever, we're keen to prod people into having more interesting, varied and challenging meetings rather than just a re-hash of your meeting last year. We want the bookfair to be provocative: we think the meetings should be part of taking anarchist ideas forward not ploughing the same weary furrow. If you want to book a meeting click here for the booking form. Complete the form and return it to us with your cheque, or let us know you have paid by paypal. If you are booking a  meeting we ask that you send us a title, who is running the meeting (your group or the individuals name) and some copy for the programme and website (about fifty words). This way, people know in advance what the meeting is about. As with stalls, meetings may be refused.
If you haven't paid yet and you have a debit or credit card, then payment can be made on the internet. click below to pay by debit or credit card.

You can also use this facility to make donations as well. These really help us, so if you can spare any money feel free to donate.

Programme

We're printing 5,000 copies of the programme, which will be given out free at the Bookfair. If you want to advertise in it, costs are £100 a page (fractions of a page are charged proportionally). Again please do this by completing the booking form and returning it to us with a cheque.
