The London Bookshop Crawl was established in 2016, and has been bringing book lovers together to explore bookshops ever since! Now a three day weekend of Group Bookshop Crawls, behind the scenes tours, quizzes, book swaps, and a Self Guided Bookshop Crawl Kit for those who'd like to do their own thing, London Bookshop Crawl will introduce you to new bookshops, give you the chance to revisit old favourites and make some new bookish friends along the way!

​

Bookshops - If you haven't been part of the London Bookshop Crawl before, here's what you need to know: 

1. It's free to participate and always will be

2. There are two main ways that bookshop crawlers participate. Firstly, by downloading the Self Guided Bookshop Crawl Kit which includes the Big List of bookshops, downloadable itineraries and the ID card, and secondly by joining one of the Group Bookshop Crawls which happen in various areas of central & greater London across the weekend. 

3. We need you to fill in the registration form so we can make sure we are sharing the correct information (opening hours, details of your shop, accessibility etc etc) with bookshop crawlers through the above means. 

4. If you'd like to offer any extras for bookshop crawlers, or are interested in hosting an event during the bookshop crawl weekend, the registration form is a great way to tell us about it!

5. All of our events, groups and tickets for things go on sale to our Bookshop Crawl UK CIC members on November 1st each year, and the general public a week later. 

6. We are a community interest company, existing to create events to connect bookish folk in a low pressure, socially antisocial way (so all of our events are low key, fun and very open ended!) and supporting bookshops. Our bookshop crawls are self funded through ticket sales. If you are interested in discussing sponsorship opportunities please get in touch at bookshopcrawluk@gmail.com.
