Time to make space on those bookshelves again! 

Book lovers, we have fantastic news for you. The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale is coming back to Dubai this November.

Usually, this is exciting news we look for at the start of February as the book sale usually takes place in March every year. But an Instagram post from the official Big Bad Wolf UAE account popped up on our ‘Gram during the doom-scrolling earlier this week which made us stop (and rejoice).

The post didn’t reveal much, except a text that reads ‘Guess who’s coming back?‘.

No other details were shared in the caption either,but… unlike Scar from The Lion King, we here at What’s On HQ love a good guessing game.

While we weren’t right about everything, we were right that the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale is returning to the UAE, to Sound Stages in Dubai Studio City. The sale will run from November 29, 2024 to December 9, 2024. (For book lovers, this means Santa has come early!)

The announcement means that the book sale has come to Dubai twice in a year, most likely due to its popularity. Last year, the Big Bad Wolf did return to the UAE for a second time but set up home in Sharjah courtesy of Sharjah Book Authority.

Don’t know what the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale is? It’s a sale which features a million books starting from as low as Dhs2. It spans plenty of genres and languages from English to Arabic, French, German, and more, with vast options for children and adults alike.

It’s come at a perfect time as you can stock up on Christmas gifts for your loved ones, and maybe get yourself a present (or five), too.

If you’re visiting for the first time, here are some tips offered by the Big Bad Wolf himself.
