About this event

Barcelona's beloved children's literary festival is back, and this year it's all about space, inspired by the playful philosophy of Georges Perec. Expect oral storytelling for every age, hands-on workshops in writing, poetry, and visual arts, live performances, two cozy reading nooks with handpicked books, and a one-of-a-kind exhibition built to be explored. Free, joyful, and the kind of weekend kids remember for years.
