What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The venue itself gives the book fair added stature: the International Convention Centre in Berakas is Brunei's largest such facility, with a history that includes hosting APEC 2000 and multiple ASEAN Summits, placing the book fair within a space more commonly associated with high-level international diplomacy and major trade expos

02

The mystery stays covered

Its multiple halls, also used for national celebrations and musical performances and concerts, give organizers the flexibility to combine book displays, author events and public programming at a scale that a smaller venue could not accommodate
