The story

Dnipro Book Space in Dnipro

Book Space is an international book festival held in Dnipro since 2018 as part of the city's Cultural Capital program, recognized as the first large-scale, regular book event in eastern Ukraine, running roughly ten program tracks and over a hundred events across its debut three-day edition.

In late September 2018, the city of Dnipro launched an international book festival called Book Space, staged as part of a broader Cultural Capital development program for the city.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Book Space launched explicitly to fill a gap: it is documented as the first large-scale, regular literary event held in eastern Ukraine, a region historically underserved by such festivals compared to Kyiv and Lviv

02

The mystery stays covered

It runs a dedicated publishing competition, Knyzhka Maibutnyoho (Book of the Future), whose central entry requirement is that submitted publications combine both digital and print technology, pushing the festival beyond a standard book fair into a showcase for the future of the book as an object

03

The city starts moving

It also distinguishes itself by pairing literary programming with live music, including a 2019 performance by the Kharkiv ska-punk band Zhadan i Sobaky (Zhadan and the Dogs, fronted by poet Serhiy Zhadan) debuting new material
