The ceremonial opening of the thirtieth exhibition will take place on November 14, 2016 in front of the Ljubljana City Hall. Just as ecology is the red thread of Ljubljana this year due to the title of Green Capital of Europe 2016, the same applies to Frankfurt after Frankfurt, which appears under the slogan 'I read green'. Books on the topic of ecology and nature protection are in the foreground. There will also be two lectures on the topic of ecology on the opening day. The sales fair will take place until November 19, 2016.
