POETAS is not a poetry festival. POETAS is a poetical festival, an interdisciplinary event, an artists' meeting, an encounter of poets with the general public.
POETAS is not a poetry festival. POETAS is a poetical festival, an interdisciplinary event, an artists' meeting, an encounter of poets with the general public. It stems from the need to reach an immense minority, to share all that's being done in the poetic realm and to show everything that surrounds words and the world of poetry.

3 stages, 20 readings, 60 editors and installations. 20 national and international artists such as Isidoro Valcárcel Medina or Esther Ferrer, honorary representatives of this year's edition POETAS for their avant-garde works. Outstanding poets such as Raúl Zurita, Alberto Santamaría, Carlos Pardo, Marco Giovenale or Enrique Falcón, proposals by musicians such as Nacho Vegas, Los Ganglios, Noiserv or Gabo Ferro, poets who foster a new language as Jansky, Javier Gallego Crudo & Seward, Martin Gubbins, Milagros Abalo, La Orquesta de Poetas and comediants as Ignatius Farray.
