LIBER Madrid

The LIBER is an international event on Spain's literary and publishing calendar, held annually at the Feria de Madrid in the capital. This fair is not just Spain's largest but also one of the most significant gatherings for the Spanish-speaking book industry worldwide.

The Feria de Madrid, often simply referred to as IFEMA (after its official name, the "Feria de Madrid" institution), boasts impressive infrastructure and state-of-the-art facilities. It's precisely this setting that provides the perfect backdrop for the LIBER, an event that has seen consistent growth since its inception in the 1980s.

LIBER gathers publishers, authors, booksellers, distributors, rights agents, and many other professionals from the book industry. They all come with the aim of discovering new works, forging business relationships, and exploring the latest trends in the literary and publishing world.

A distinguishing feature of the fair is its international focus. Although its primary emphasis is on the Spanish-speaking world, it attracts participants and visitors from all corners of the globe. Seminars, discussions, and workshops on a wide array of topics - from the challenges of the digital age to emerging literary currents - offer an invaluable platform for learning and networking.

In conclusion, the LIBER at the Feria de Madrid is much more than just a book fair. It's a vibrant hub of cultural exchange, a celebration of the Spanish language and culture, and an indispensable event for all those active in the Spanish-speaking literary sphere.

The LIBER takes place annually, and therefore for the 38th time previsibly in October 2024 in Madrid.
