The Festival de Literatura de Lanzarote (FDLL) will hold its fourth edition between October and December 2026, consolidating a cultural event that since 2023 has turned the island into a meeting place for contemporary literature. Under the motto “Letras de rofe y sal”, the festival will offer a programme of encounters with prestigious writers, open conversations with the public and creative writing workshops.
Among the big names confirmed are Ray Loriga, Carme Riera, Mircea Cărtărescu, Pola Oloixarac, Elisa Victoria, Juan Gómez Bárcena and Berna González-Harbour, who will lead sessions in Arrecife, Puerto del Carmen, Yaiza and Teguise. During these encounters they will share their creative processes, the keys to their work and their views on some of the great themes of contemporary literature.
The programme is completed by two reading and creative writing workshops given by Fernando Clemot and Laura Fernández, scheduled for 14 and 21 October at the Casa de la Cultura Agustín de la Hoz in Arrecife. Both will offer a hands-on approach to the tools and processes of literary creation.
All Festival de Literatura de Lanzarote activities are free, although prior registration is required through the event's official website: www.fdll.es.
