84th edition of the Madrid Book Fair from May 30 to June 15.
El Retiro Park is filled with booths from publishers and bookstores, offering author signings and activities for all audiences.
This year, the fair will feature 366 booths, where publishers, bookstores, and associations will present a wide range of titles and new releases.
The central theme of this edition is
New York, focusing on "the city that speaks and writes in Spanish." To this end, collaborations have been established with American universities such as Brown, Columbia, Fordham, NYU, Cornell, and Yale, which will send delegations of researchers and professors to participate in various activities.
The official poster was designed by Argentine illustrator Coni Curi, who created an image that fuses iconic elements of Madrid and New York, symbolizing the intersection of the two literary cultures.
The fair hours will be:
* Monday to Thursday: 10:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
* Friday: 10:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
* Saturdays and Sundays: 10:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
