Event Details

Under the theme "Our Book.. Our Future," and under the direct patronage of Professor Dr. Hasan Shakir Majdi, President of Al-Mustaqbal University, the university is preparing to launch the 5th Al-Mustaqbal Annual Book Fair (MBF 5th), one of the most prominent academic and cultural events in the region. The fair will commence on Saturday, April 4, 2026, and will run for a full week, concluding on April 12. Activities will be hosted across the campus; the Central Activities Hall will house the publishing houses' pavilions, while the Student Activities Tent will host accompanying events, providing an integrated knowledge environment that transcends traditional reading toward horizons of innovation. This edition features extensive participation from local and international publishing houses, offering diverse intellectual and scientific productions that serve students and researchers. The fair aims to solidify the book's position as a fundamental pillar for building the "Future of Knowledge," where pages transform into inspiring visions and experiences for rising generations. On the sidelines of the fair, the "Al-Mustaqbal Handicrafts Bazaar" stands out as a strategic platform in the Student Activities Tent to support youth entrepreneurship. The bazaar aims to empower students and talented individuals to showcase their handmade products and artistic creations, integrating the concept of freelancing with the academic path to refine their marketing skills and support the knowledge and professional economy of the youth. These events reaffirm Al-Mustaqbal University's leadership as the first private university in Iraq and its commitment to providing high-quality community services that raise cultural awareness and create an interactive environment combining science, culture, and youth creativity.
