About Us

The Singapore Children’s Book Festival returns in 2026, celebrating the readers, creators, and publishers behind Singapore’s children’s literature. Building on the success of previous editions, the festival once again presents Singapore’s only dedicated award for children’s book illustration — the Illustrator of the Year Prize.

Taking place from 19 to 21 June 2026 at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, the festival will feature an illustrators’ gallery, engaging activities for children, talks and storytelling sessions by authors and publishers, and a lively festival bazaar. More programme details will be announced soon.
