Salon du livre Saint-Germain-des-Prés 2025
The second edition of the Salon du Livre Saint-Germain-des-Prés “Des pages avant la plage” will take place on June 28 & 29, 2025 on the Place Saint-Germain-des-Prés, in the heart of Paris’ most literary district.
Les Deux Magots is once again partnering this free event, open to all. The links between our company and literature have been invaluable to us for 140 years.
An eclectic mix of writers will be on hand for signing sessions. The program will alternate between established authors and new talents, novels and essays, with a special place for children’s literature. There will be something for every taste and every world.

As always, the aim is to promote literature, writing and reading. This year, major meetings will be held with guest authors at the Hôtel de l’Industrie, a giant dictation will take place in the playground of the Saint-Benoît school group, and a writing workshop will be held at the Hôtel Bel Ami.
As guardians of a highly symbolic literary heritage, authors and readers will follow in the footsteps of Vian, Beauvoir, Sartre, Camus and so many others who have remade the world and left their mark.
Opening hours: Saturday June 28: 10:00 am – 6:30 pm / Sunday June 29: 10:00 am – 7:00 pm
