We’re excited to be part of the Sydney Global Book Crawl again this year, along with our Chatswood store, from 20 to 26 April 2026!

The heart of the Global Book Crawl is the joy of discovery: wandering through bookstores, getting lost in conversations, and finding titles you didn’t know you needed. Come and meet fellow readers, chat with local booksellers and have your passport stamped. There are 16 participating stores in Sydney this year, and we are proud to be part of it!

HOW TO CRAWL:

1. Pick up your Sydney Book Crawl Passport from our Information Counter at @kinokuniya_sydney or from the Cashier Counter at @kinokuniya_chatswood!

2. Get your Passport stamped by our staff. Each Kino store will have its own Moichi stamp, so make sure to collect both!

3. Continue to collect stamps from all participating bookstores found on your map!
