About Feria de Editores
In 2013, the first Feria de Editores took place, at the headquarters of a local radio station, FM La Tribu. It involved 15 small publishers, with the purpose of showing their books and generating a space where readers and publishers could meet. Year after year, the event grew both in number of participants and audience. This showed that there was a cultural need waiting to be addressed.
In 2016 there was an important improvement: the fair was held at Central Newbery art gallery, with more than 400 m2, with about 80 national publishers, plus 7 guests from Uruguay, Chile and Mexico. In 2017, it was consolidated by doubling its space —900 m2—, with the participation of 140 publishers from Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela and Spain.
FED24 found us at the C Complejo Art Media: we had the participation of 330 publishers from all over Latin America, surpassing a new attendance record. We received more than 24,000 people curious to know the best of independent publishing.
