Various locations across Edinburgh
Choose your own adventure from over 20 bookshops, using the Self-Guided Bookshop Crawl Kit to plan your weekend, day, or afternoon, with all the information you’ll need included in the Big List, and some fun extras along the way with the Bookshop Crawl ID card.
Alternatively, join the friendly Group Bookshop Crawl for a wander through brilliant bookshops, exploring an eclectic range of indies, with a stop for refreshments mid-afternoon (refreshments aren’t included in the ticket price and must be purchased separately). Meet other bookish folk with a love of books and bookshops. The Group Bookshop Crawl runs from 1pm to 4.30pm on Sunday 31 May 2026, and is recommended for 10+years. Children under 16 are free with a paying adult.
Please note, this event involves a lot of walking, and several bookshops have steps to enter. If you would like details on accessibility, please contact the event organisers in advance on bookshopcrawluk@gmail.com.
