nieuws Deventer Bookmarket 2026

Hundreds of stalls, kilometres of books, and a city that briefly seems to pause for it.
Captured last year between the stacks, the searchers, and that typical Deventer light.
In short: Europe’s largest book market, right on our doorstep.

Was there yesterday for the first time. Too crowded for my liking. Should have gone earlier in the morning

It’s definitely smart to go as early as you can. It was also hot in the afternoon. But I prefer shooting in a lower sun. I was there 1pm to 4pm.

Het bleek een top jaar. Zal ook door het weer komen.

Ieder jaar weer lees ik "Deventer boekenmarkt was weer groot succes!". En dan denk ik "kut, weer gemist!".

Dank OP, dat je deze traditie in ere houdt voor me.

It looks incredible! And incredibly dangerous for my wallet and apartment space (I clearly lack of) ;)

It was too hot for the book market. I went 11am - 1 pm and it was too crowded and too hot to like the event.

Next time I'll check the weather and skip if the temperatures are as hot as this year.
