Children's Book Fair 2025

Kolibrí Festivaali 2025 will host its traditional Children’s Book Fair!

Our Children’s Book Fair is one of our most traditional events and it offers a unique opportunity to take home children’s books in Spanish and Portuguese. Every year, we embrace children’s literature with a wide selection of titles from publishers throughout Ibero-America.

Kolibrí Children’s Book Fair will spotlight the works of illustrator and writer Gusti (AR), creator of the Kolibrí 2025 image, and poet Mar Benegas (ES), our 2025 Guest Artist. You will have the opportunity to buy their books at the fair and have them signed by both authors!

For the first time, Kolibrí will welcome a guest publishing house: A buen paso, the publisher behind many of Mar Benegas’ books.

Don’t miss the chance to bring home second-hand and new children’s books to enjoy with your little ones.

This activity is thanks to a collaboration with A buen paso, El sitio de las palabras.
