- Havana's International Book Fair
The Havana's International Book Fair is a Cuban festival that focuses on the promotion of books. It also known in Spanish as "Feria Internacional del Libro de La Habana".
The festival first took place in 1992, and now takes place annually between the months of February and March. It begins in Havana's La Cabaña fortress before extending to other cities across the nation, ending in the eastern city of Santiago de Cuba.[ [http://www.cubanow.net/global/loader.php?&secc=7&item=1908&cont=show.php Havana Book Fair] CubaNow.net] Over 100 publishing houses present catalogues of books including Casa de las Américas.]
