Festival Internacional de Poesia Costa Rica

Costa Rica's International Poetry Festival, run since 2001 by Casa de Poesia and founded by writers including Norberto Salinas Olle, Rodolfo Dada Fumero and Julieta Dobles, publishes a book for every invited poet, 254 volumes across its history, and spreads readings across 25 regional headquarters nationwide rather than concentrating solely on San Jose.

Costa Rica's International Poetry Festival, organized since 2001 by Casa de Poesia and founded by writers including Norberto Salinas Olle, Rodolfo Dada Fumero and Julieta Dobles, distinguishes itself with a single concrete practice found at no other poetry festival identified in comparable research: every invited poet has a book published as part of their participation, a commitment that has produced 254 published volumes by poets from dozens of countries across the festival's first two decades.
