Festivals and cultural events Madrid

Like every year since 1933, the Retiro Park (although the first editions took place on the paseo de Recoletos) becomes an open-air bookshop by hosting the book fair of the Spanish capital. For two weeks, more than two million people flocked to this cultural event and strolled along the 360 stands that showcased authors and publishers. In addition, each year a country is the guest of honour.
