Win a set of all 13 books from the Booker Prize 2026 longlist and our new tote bag

To celebrate the announcement of the Booker Prize 2026 longlist, five readers will win a complete set of the 13 longlisted titles along with a limited-edition Booker Prizes tote bag, featuring illustrations by Bill Rebholz.

The longlist for this prize cycle contains 13 works of fiction published in the UK and/or Ireland between 1 October 2025 and 30 September 2026. Chair of judges Mary Beard described the books on this year’s list as ‘the funny and the unsettling (and in some cases the funny and unsettling); there’s dystopian fantasy and domestic drama; there’s the gritty and the magically mysterious; there are some that will please and some that may shock.’

Each prize bundle includes a complete set of all 13 books on the Booker Prize 2026 longlist and a limited-edition Booker Prizes tote bag. The package is designed to celebrate the power of storytelling and the joy of reading, offering a tangible collection that captures the spirit of this year’s lineup.

Winners will be chosen at random from entries received before 12:00 BST on Thursday, 20 August 2026, and will be notified by email. Prize dispatch may begin in late September 2026 as soon as the publishers deliver the titles. The competition is open to readers worldwide, inviting book lovers from around the globe to join the excitement.

Two titles on the longlist have not yet been published at the time of the announcement, so dispatch timing may vary. Regardless, this celebration is all about discovering new voices, bold ideas, and stories that linger long after the final page is turned.
