Frankfurt Pavilion
The cultural-political stage at Frankfurter Buchmesse

Located on the Agora, at the heart of the fair, the striking Frankfurt Pavilion invited you to discover exciting events on current cultural and political topics, such as the safeguarding of democracy, diversity in the media, Russia's war on Ukraine and the Russian opposition in exile. The situation in Afghanistan, the future of Europe and its literatures, questions about climate and economy and much more were discussed. The Sunday of the fair in the Frankfurt Pavilion was dedicated to the topics of children's and youth media and audio books.
