Since it was first held in 1933 on the Paseo de Recoletos, the Book Fair has not stopped growing and contributing to the cultural mosaic of the city. The upcoming 78th edition will be celebrated between May and June and Dominican Republic will be the guest country.
The increase in the number of requests to participate from booksellers, publishers and distributors made it necessary to look for a new venue, which is why the Fair moved to the Retiro Park in 1967. Time has proven that this venue was the right choice and it is now closely associated with the annual book and reading event.
Visitors to the fair can take advantage of special discounts. It is also an excellent opportunity to get well-known writers to sign their works as different publishing houses and booksellers have book-signing sessions at their stands every day.
