Big Bad Wolf Books in Olongapo: The World’s Biggest Book Sale Lands in the City for the First Time

If you’ve been following my blog, you probably know how much I love Big Bad Wolf Books. Earlier this year, I shared my book haul from the Clark leg of the sale, and it was such a fun (and overwhelming!) experience being surrounded by endless stacks of discounted books. This time, I’m even more excited because the Wolf is finally coming to Olongapo City!

From September 19 to 28, 2025, the SMX Convention Center Olongapo will be filled with over 1 million brand-new English books at jaw-dropping discounts of up to 95% off retail prices. As someone who’s been to the sale before, I can say it’s not just about buying books, it’s about the thrill of the hunt and the joy of discovering unexpected treasures.

A Reading Revolution Arrives in Olongapo

Since its launch in 2009, Big Bad Wolf Books has grown into a global reading advocacy movement, reaching 17 countries and 50 cities worldwide. More than just a sale, it’s a mission-driven event designed to make books accessible, affordable, and exciting for all ages.

Now, Olongapo residents and nearby provinces like Zambales, Bataan, and Pampanga can finally join the revolution. Whether you’re a parent, student, educator, or casual reader, this event is your chance to discover and bring home books that inspire and entertain.
