Parchim Book and Comic Fair PaBuCo

Review PaBuCo 2025

With the 2025 premiere, Parchim ventured into new territory with PaBuCo: a fair that brings together classic book culture and young comic and pop culture under one roof. The Stadthalle was filled with authors, comic artists, and a colourful audience of bookworms and cosplayers.

Readings, signing sessions, and a cosplay competition marked the day. The high demand and positive feedback convinced the organisers — the town of Parchim, the public library, and author Sabine Reifenstahl — to expand the second edition in 2026 to two full days.
