The "FILBo Feria Internacional del Libro de Bogotá," established in 1988, is considered one of the most significant international book fairs in Bogotá, Colombia. The name "FILBo" originates from Spanish, standing for the "Bogotá International Book Fair." This annual event is held at the International Exhibition Center Corferias in Bogotá.

The organization of FILBo is managed by Corferias in cooperation with the Colombian Book Chamber.
