Intro

Talks, workshops and a pop-up bookshop at Yverdon Castle: the festival brings together authors, illustrators and the public. Free!

The Festival acts as a bridge between authors, illustrators and the public.

‎‎

Organised by Payot Libraire in collaboration with the Swiss Institute for Children and Media, the Yverdon-les-Bains Library and the Yverdon and Region Museum, and with the support of the City of Yverdon-les-Bains and the Payot Foundation for the Promotion of Reading, the festival offers a programme of events, creative workshops and meetings at the Château d’Yverdon-les-Bains.

‎‎

Ahead of the Festival, authors and illustrators visit 50 classes across the region, making this festival a true bridge between books, schools and the joy of reading. On site, a pop-up bookshop offers a selection of children’s books throughout the weekend.

See you on 30 and 31 May at the Château d’Yverdon-les-Bains.
