An Iconic Literary Celebration in Bogota

This year’s honored guest country is Spain, promising rich dialogue between Spanish and Colombian voices. For Bogota readers, it’s a time of excitement, discovery, and connection.

Spain, with its centuries of literary tradition, brings a curated lineup of prominent authors, publishers, and cultural institutions. Expect tributes to Cervantes, contemporary Spanish fiction, and panels on shared histories between Colombia and Spain. FILBO 2025 will be a celebration of language, identity, and global literary heritage.
