The GABBS book fair is an annual event held at the Stadium. Our Book Fair raises funds for the East City Community Trust, and the Barfoot & Thompson Stadium Sports Clubs. The journey doesn't stop there though! Left over books from the fair go on to great use through a number of initiatives in schools and colleges in other parts of Auckland, and all the way over in Papua New Guinea thanks to one of our partners "From me to PNG"
We accept books, DVDs, jigsaw puzzles, records, CDs, and magazines at the Stadium all year round. Please refer the website below for delivery and drop off information.
