Each year at the end of May we hold a 3-day Book Fair in McGregor to raise funds for our work as a Donkey Sanctuary.

The dates for the 2020 Book Fair are 22 to 24 May.

Friday to Sunday 10 am to 5pm (Sunday till 2pm)

We extend a warm invitation to our bookworms and bargain browsers who come to the Book Fair. You face an impressive choice from over 14,000 books, all offered at bargain prices.

The choice includes new, pristine pre-owned and even collectable books – like 100 year old classics and first editions. Current novels, travel, a huge collection of new cook books, art, gardening and lifestyle books abound, plus there's also biography and a massive selection of children's titles.

All purchases help raise proceeds which turn a new page for countless donkeys. Plus the on-site coffee shop has drinks and eats for all tastes.

Beyond the book buzz of the Book Fair, people also enjoy the quiet contemplation at the Sanctuary, where they can walk the grounds that are dedicated to rescued and retired donkeys. Here you will find more books and also our charming rustic bistro. Eat, Bray, Love!
