The program of 28th edition of the International Book Fair of Turin (14-19 May, 2015), was presented on Monday, 27th April 2015 at 11.30 a.m. in Aula Magna Università di Torino, Cavallerizza Reale, Via Verdi 9, Turin.

The main theme of the International Book Fair 2015 is The Wonders of Italy.
A great number of people are expected to visit Expo Milano 2015, and this seems to be the occasion to reflect about the relationship with our vast heritage.
We are talking about an artistic, architectural, literary, musical, linguistic, landscape treasure related to crafts, design, fashion, cinema, photography and that, with its variety, ended up defining the features and the identity of Italian style.

Germany takes part in the Book Fair 2015 as guest of honour country because of our close collaboration with Frankfurt Buchmesse and Goethe Institute premises in Turin, that celebrates its 60th year of foundation.
For the organisation of the most prestigious book fair of world, this collaboration represents a crucial event for the relationship between the two nations in this very moment when the European scene is facing such a difficult and tense period of time.

This year the new book exhibitors are 80: there are 31 young editors, 50 German editors and in three years there has been an increase of 96% of small Italian publishers.
The hosting region is Lazio and the next hosting countries will be Saudi Arabia in 2016, Kazakhstan in 2017 and Azerbaijan in 2018.

The area Bookstock Village will be present, offering 250 hours of free workshops, as well as Salone Off, that has planned more than 500 meetings throughout the city.

The 70th anniversary of 25th April is approaching and Torino Jazz Festival (TJF) will start with the first of many events. We have been working hard to organize this day to celebrate Italy’s Liberation, thinking about the music (not only Jazz!) and the quality of the topics of the readings that will be presented during the happening. We hope that this event will gather a lot of people from Turin and from everywhere.

 

Liberation Day Jazz Festival celebrates the 70th anniversary with a dense program full of musical activities and readings that will take place in some important memorial location situated in Turin historical places. The symbol of the celebration is the wandering Dixieland Orchestra that will perform on moving vintage military means of transport. The day will be closing with a concert – linked with the activities offered by the hosting institutes – taking place in the afternoon under the arcade of Palazzo di San Celso (Museo Diffuso della Resistenza, corso Valdocco 4/a). Associazione Ar.Co.Te. is in charge of the musical activities, the readings and the organization of the celebration day.
