Our annual Photobook Fair returns and a big part of the fair is supporting independent, non-mainstream, grassroots and self-published photobooks and zines by photographers and artists.

The Photobook Fair is on Saturday 4 October 2025, 10.30am to 4.30pm and is free to attend. There will be book stalls with leading photographic publishers and booksellers, as well as a programme of talks and events throughout the day.

We are looking for self-published photobooks and photography zines to sell on the day at our dedicated self-publisher stall.

If your publication is selected, you will only need to pay a one-off donation of £10. In return we will sell your book at the Photobook Fair on your behalf. We will take no other commission and all sales will go to you. You will be responsible for posting your publication to us and covering return postage and packaging costs.

 

How to apply

The application process is free.

You can apply to sell one title at the Photobook Fair.

To apply email either a full copy or some sample pages of your publication in PDF or JPEG format to hello@impressions-gallery.com. This must include an image of the front cover.

Your email submission must include your name, address, telephone number, email address, retail cost and a brief description of your publication (100 words max).

Closing date for applications is Friday 22 August by 5pm.
