The Salone Internazionale del Libro di Torino is an annual book fair for the Italian publishing sector. It is held every May at the Lingotto exhibition complex in Turin and brings together publishers, authors, booksellers and publishing service companies.

Besides the fair, the organisation runs the Salone Off, a city-wide programme started in 2004 that takes books and authors into schools, libraries, museums, theatres and parks across Turin and the Piedmont provinces. It also presents literary awards, including the Premio Ernesto Ferrero (with Fondazione CRT), the Premio nazionale Nati per leggere and the Premio di letteratura sportiva Gianni Mura. Other projects include a showcase of literary festivals, a sports-culture newsletter called Fuoriclasse and year-round digital content on literary topics.

The fair was founded in 1988 on an idea by Guido Accornero. The website also announces the 6th edition of the Festa del libro medievale e antico, scheduled for 23–25 October 2026 in Saluzzo (CN) under the theme 'A tavola nel Medioevo'.
