The story

Feria Internacional del Libro de Venezuela in Caracas

FILVEN, the Feria Internacional del Libro de Venezuela, is a state-organized national book fair running since 2005 that in its twenty-first Caracas edition, held July 3 to 13, 2025, at the Galeria de Arte Nacional and Plaza de la Juventud, featured Egypt as guest country of honor and more than 600 programmed activities.

Venezuela's national book fair tradition stretches back to 1992, when the first Ferias del Libro de Caracas began drawing readers and publishers to the capital.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

FILVEN traces its lineage to the Ferias del Libro de Caracas that began in 1992, giving the current fair more than three decades of institutional continuity even though the FILVEN name and its expanded, multi-region structure date to 2005

02

The mystery stays covered

The 2025 Caracas edition organized its programming around distinct thematic axes, including Narrativa Actual de Venezuela, Comuna as a space for reading transformation, and a dedicated Egypt track tracing that country's literary heritage from the Library of Alexandria to digital libraries today, and drew publishing delegations from Argentina, Peru, Spain, Mexico, Cuba, and China
