WHAT IS THE MANCHESTER ANARCHIST BOOKFAIR?

There has been two Manchester Anarchist Bookfairs at the Basement in central Manchester after holding several radical bookfairs in the city.

It was decided to change the name to the Manchester Anarchist Bookfair to more accurately reflect the books, groups and campaigns represented.

To date there have been seven Manchester Radical Bookfairs, the first six took place at Bridge 5 Mill (home of MERCi) in Ancoats, close to central Manchester. The seventh bookfair took place at a new venue, the Basement at 24 Lever Street (off Piccadilly Gardens) in central Manchester. There were two Manchester Anarchist Bookfairs at the Basement , prior to its closure due to fire and flooding!

The last Manchester Anarchist Bookfair took place at a new venue, Jabez Clegg, which is close to Manchester University just off Oxford Road.

Manchester Anarchist Bookfair is a platform for grass roots, activist, anarchist and radical politics.

Manchester Anarchist Bookfair focuses on books, magazines and pamphlets relating to Anarchism, Peace, Ecology and Radical Social Change.
