The Halloween Book Fair will take place at The Cookbook Shop in Leith on 28 October 2026 at 18:30. The event features spooky and macabre book curations from independent shops, alongside a special storytime and a pastry pop-up. It forms part of a three-day celebration running on 28, 29 and 31 October 2026.
This Halloween, The Cookbook Shop's bookcases will overflow with the terrifying, the macabre, the moderately spooky (and some alarming non-fiction) - and not just our usual culinary books. We're gathering seasonal book curations from independent bookshops all over the city for a 3-day Halloween celebration with Scholastic Book Fair vibes. There will also be a very special Halloween storytime, a Halloween-themed pastry pop-up, and more. All during normal shop opening hours: 11am to 6:30pm. Additional Dates: 29 October 2026, 31 October 2026
