Abstract. It is shown that the Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás theorem holds for bilinear forms on the complex C 0 (L 1 ) × C 0 (L 2 ) for arbitrary locally compact topological Hausdorff spaces L 1 and L 2 .All along the paper, we will use the following usual notation. Let B X and S X denote, respectively, the closed unit ball and the unit sphere of a Banach space X, and let X * denotes the (topological) dual space of X. We write L(X, Y ) to denote the space of all bounded linear operators from a Banach space X into a Banach space Y and B(X × Y ) to denote the space of all bounded bilinear forms defined on X × Y . We say that T ∈ L(X, Y ) (respectively B ∈ B(X × Y )) attains its norm if there is x ∈ S X such that T x = T (respectively, there are x ∈ S X and y ∈ S Y such that |B(x, y)| = B ).The classical Bishop-Phelps theorem [14] states that the set of norm attaining linear functionals are dense in the topological dual of an arbitrary Banach space. Bollobás Let X be a Banach space. If x ∈ B X and x * ∈ S B * X satisfy Re x * (x) > 1 − ε 2 /2. Then there exist y ∈ S X and y * ∈ S X * such that y * (y) = 1, x * − y * < ε and x − y < ε. there exist x 1 ∈ S X and S ∈ L(X, Y ) such that S(x 1 ) = S = 1, x 0 − x 1 < ε and S − B < ε. In this case, it also said that the Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás theorem holds for L(X, Y ).It is clear that the Bishop-Phelps-Bollobás property for a pair (X, Y ) implies that norm attaining operators are dense in L(X, Y ), being false the converse: there is a (reflexive) space Y such that the
