Vitoria-Gasteiz will host its annual Book Days from April 13 to 23, with a significant change this year: the entire main program will be held at the Montehermoso cultural center for the first time, bringing together renowned authors.

The Vitoria-Gasteiz Book Days are set to enrich the city's cultural calendar from April 13 to 23. This year's edition introduces a notable change: for the first time, all main activities will be relocated to the Montehermoso cultural center. This venue will host prominent authors including Bernardo Atxaga, Nativel Preciado, Lorenzo Silva, Laura Pérez Vernetti, and Mikel Soto.
Events will commence each afternoon at 6:30 PM, with free admission until capacity is reached. Additionally, a book sales and signing area will be available. This event is positioned as one of Vitoria's most significant cultural offerings in April, featuring literary encounters, comics, essays, easy-to-read formats, and a participatory initiative across the city's libraries.

For the first time, the entire main program will be relocated to the Montehermoso cultural center, bringing together renowned authors such as Bernardo Atxaga, Nativel Preciado, Lorenzo Silva, Laura Pérez Vernetti, and Mikel Soto.

The program will kick off on April 13 with Nativel Preciado, who will present her work El pan de mis hijos. The following day, April 14, Bernardo Atxaga will arrive with a Basque presentation of Enarak. On April 15, Laura Pérez Vernetti will take the stage with La venus de los tacones, and on April 16, Lorenzo Silva will visit Montehermoso to discuss Con nadie.
The final stretch of the event will also feature other notable names. On April 21, Javier Alcázar and Manu Arroyal will participate with an easy-to-read adaptation of La edad de la ira. On April 22, Mikel Soto will present Mirande, herriminez, ezin-minez. The Book Days will conclude on April 23 with the awards ceremony for the Letras por la M3moria competition.
All sessions will begin at 6:30 PM, and access will be free until full capacity, with no prior ticket required. Furthermore, sign language interpreter services will be provided on two days: April 13 and 16. The Vitoria Municipal Library Network will also launch a participatory initiative from April 13 to 23, inviting users to leave reading recommendations in designated library spaces to create a collective mural.
