Many book fairs will take place around the world -- both traditional and virtual -- throughout the year

 The number of virtual book fairs have grown on the internet over the last year.  2 Seas Agency, with offices in California and Europe that sells foreign rights worldwide or into specific territories according to their clients’ needs, has a 2021 calendar of international book fairs.  They will keep it updated as more events might go online.

Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, many of these events have been happening either virtually or were cancelled altogether.

At the time of writing (late December 2020), there is still a lot of uncertainty about when, how, or even if these events will take place in 2021.
