10th edition of the Gijón/Xixón Book Fair 2026
The Gijón/Xixón Book Fair (FeLix) is a cultural project with its own identity that goes beyond commercial activity. Its programming is designed with independent criteria, offering a coherent proposal that includes:
-
Thematic threads:
- GEÓPOLIS: Analysis of global instability and the world order.
- LAS GRIETAS DE LO COTIDIANO: Essays and fiction on digitalization, precariousness, and emotional instability.
- MI VIDA EN EL ARTE: Novelized biographies of relevant figures from the art world.
-
Activities: Literary presentations, meetings with book clubs, discussion panels, children’s storytelling, musical performances, live readings, scavenger hunts, contests, and film screenings.
The fair features the participation of booksellers and publishers, and is held in various iconic spaces throughout the city, including the Centro de Cultura Antiguo Instituto, the Escuela de Comercio, and the Paseo de Begoña.
