FIL Lima, the Feria Internacional del Libro de Lima, organized by the Camara Peruana del Libro, is one of the largest book fairs in Latin America, combining a large publisher marketplace with literary talks, a rotating guest-of-honor country, and extensive programming for children and schools.
FIL Lima functions as Peru's central annual literary gathering, drawing publishers, independent bookstores, and authors from across the Spanish-speaking world into a single venue, with each edition built around a featured guest country whose literature and authors receive special programming, giving the fair an international dimension beyond a purely domestic book market
