From the website of Rebellion Publishing-

Where is the 2022 edition?

Whitaker’s Almanac is on hiatus. There will not be a 2022 edition of the Almanack. Any further news will be posted on this website. Unfortunately the realities of the pandemic and its affects on the market, along with changes in international manufacturing have had severe and ongoing detrimental effects to the global supply chain. The book trade is suffering printing and shipping price rises and delays which have made the hiatus unavoidable. We therefore cannot set a date for a new edition at this time.


I suspect Rebellion have bitten off more than they could chew.  I wonder if the 2021 edition was the last one

As an avid reader of all types of books, I've noticed that, in general, there seems to have been a lot fewer books published over the last 2 years.

If Debrett's hadn't decided to stop publishing already, this certainly would have been the death knell for any future additions.

Hopefully, Whitaker's comes back (I know I've used it as a source even here in the U.S.), but it seems nothing is for certain these days.
