Literal Fair - Radical Ideas and Book Fair in Barcelona
Fira Literal is a true celebration of critical thinking held in Barcelona. In its eleventh edition, taking place on May 24 and 25, 2025, the fair will continue to be a space for reflection and encounter for all those who aspire to radically transform the world. In the words of the organizers: "This edition aims to continue uniting and growing this community, generating a space for reflection and encounter for all those who hope to radically transform the world."
The fair will feature a broad program that includes talks, roundtables, presentations, and other activities to encourage debate and interaction among attendees.
Book market
One of the main attractions of the Literal Fair is its book market, which annually brings together around 100 independent publishers and bookstores. This market, which occupies the streets of the Fabra i Coats complex, showcases around 6,000 titles specializing in critical thinking. It is a meeting and community space where attendees can discover new voices and ideas, as well as take care of themselves and connect with others who share similar interests.
The Literal Fair is not only a literary event, but also an opportunity for the community to come together and share ideas that can inspire meaningful change. If you are passionate about literature and critical thinking, don't miss this unique opportunity to participate in an event that celebrates diverse ideas and creativity.
We look forward to seeing you!
