The British Book Design & Production Awards celebrate the very best in British book design, production, and craftsmanship, bringing together designers, publishers, printers, and creatives from across the industry.

Guests will have the opportunity to explore the shortlisted titles up close—viewing, handling, and experiencing the exceptional quality of this year’s entries—before enjoying a three-course dinner and the awards ceremony. Winners across 19 categories, including the coveted Book of the Year, will be revealed during the evening.

Hosted by illustrator and graphic designer Anita Mangan—returning for her third year by popular demand—the evening promises to be both celebratory and engaging. Anita has worked on over 100 books and is also known for her appearances on Celebrity Gogglebox and Sky Arts’ Celebrity Portrait Artist of the Year.

Brought to you by BPIF, these prestigious awards are one of the most anticipated and well-respected events in the literary calendar.
