The Booker Prize is the world’s most significant award for a single work of fiction. It has rewarded and celebrated world-class talent for over 50 years, shaping the canon of 20th and 21st century literature. The 2025 shortlist will be announced by this year’s judges on Tuesday, 23 September at a public event at the Southbank Centre in London.
The POS offer
This Booker season, we’re offering bookshops in the UK and Ireland free point-of-sale (POS) materials to share the six shortlisted books with your customers, plus the chance for one independent bookshop to win two tickets for their booksellers to attend the ceremony on Monday, 10 November at Old Billingsgate in London (including an overnight stay and travel expenses*).
To receive a pack of printed POS materials featuring the shortlist and our ‘Fiction worth talking about’ campaign slogan (including posters, bookmarks and shelf strips printed on FSC-certified paper, plus a digital pack of assets), please complete the below form by 5pm BST on Friday, 12 September. You can also sign up for digital materials ONLY if you’d prefer.
We will send you the POS pack just after the shortlist is announced on Tuesday, 23 September and aim to deliver by Tuesday, 30 September.
The competition
To enter the competition, all you need to do is assemble an in-store display of the shortlisted books accompanied by the materials, and share a photo or video with us by emailing to [email protected] and also ideally on social media tagging @TheBookerPrizes and #BookerPrizeIndies by 5pm BST on Thursday, 9 October.
The Booker Prize Foundation team will pick the most original and creative display as its winner and the winning bookseller will be notified by 5pm BST on Wednesday, 15 October.
