The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale’s returning to our Sound Stages in Dubai Studio City is always a splendid match, not only because it can easily accommodate the size and scale of the event, but we share a common appreciation for culture and the power of stories.”

The first time the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale was held in Dubai was in 2018 and is returning for the third time. Taking the World’s Biggest Book Sale global and touring 34 cities in 13 countries, the Co-Founder of Big Bad Wolf Books, Jacqueline Ng said: “We launched Big Bad Wolf Books in 2009 to build a new generation of readers and increase English literacy worldwide. In over a decade, our event has expanded its footprint globally and our Dubai chapter is one of the most successful editions as evidenced by its huge following and popularity, as well as a constantly growing and expanding audience. Coinciding with the Month of Good, we want to welcome everyone in Dubai to come to the Sale and shop to their hearts content and perhaps also buy a book or two as gifts for their loved ones or friends as a part of celebrating the Holy Month of Ramadan”.
