Take all my money! The International Book Fair, better known as FIL, returns to the Palacio de Minería in Mexico City. This space in the Historic Center will become a mega bookstore for 10 days.
If your goal is to read more and grow your personal library, you’re sure to find the best motivation here. The FIL returns in 2026 with a wide range of titles, from novels and science fiction to politics and cookbooks.
Get your savings out, because from February 20 to March 1, you’ll be immersed in pages and shelves. This edition is very special, as Sonora will be the guest state.
This means that there will be a section where you will find publishers, writers, university publications, and other publications from this state. In addition, there will be a program of activities where you can learn more about its history and culture.
Remember that one of the key points to experiencing the FIL is to participate in its activities, such as book presentations, conferences, talks, and workshops. Its 47th edition will be no exception.
This space is perfect for children and young people. Remember that the youth days, with special activities, will take place on February 23, 24, and 25.
