Worldwide listening is on the rise and there are more opportunities than ever for authors, storytellers and performers. Last week, we returned to The London Book Fair to connect with industry leaders and share insights into the growth driving the audio boom. Our panel discussions featured Audible leaders Rachel Ghiazza, Lee Jarit, Aurelie de Troyer, and Lisa Higginson, and other renowned voices. The insights they shared were quite compelling, including: 🎧 Romance genre listening on Audible grew 50% in 18 months. Sci-fi/fantasy, mystery/thriller, and fiction are Audible's top 3 genres worldwide. 🎧 Sci-fi listening jumped 20%+ in 18 months, while kids' content saw a 22% increase in Audible member listening in 2024. 🎧 Over 31% of Audible's catalog are ACX-published titles, and hours spent listening to ACX titles increased 40% last year.

Experience wellness wherever you are with Audible. 🧘🎧 Audible’s wellness campaign in Europe brings the power of listening to life with a dedicated Wellness Pod at Berlin’s Alexa Mall. As one listener put it, “We all have too little time in everyday life to take a deep breath. Why not take the opportunity to do so?” The campaign also featured bespoke influencer content and CGI-led experiences across iconic European landmarks—including the Duomo in Milan and key locations in Berlin, Madrid, and Paris—transporting listeners to tranquil worlds. Kudos to all the teams who brought this to life! #MoreToImagine Credit: Pebble Studios, Sebastian Gabsch Fotografie, Hammer Promotion GmbH
