The second Hay Forum Sevilla will take place from March 14 to 17, 2024, at various venues in the Andalusian capital. The program includes 18 events where topics such as literature, architecture, the environment, and more will be discussed.
Carmona is a historic city neighbouring Seville whose elevated location on the ridge of the Sierra de los Alcores made it an impregnable gateway to the Guadalquivir delta for over five thousand years. The city has flourished culturally at various points throughout its history. In keeping with this heritage, the chef Gioconda Scott will open the doors of La Casa de María, a hub of Carmona’s artistic movement during the 80s.
This closing act of Hay Forum Seville 2024 will consist of a celebratory brunch, where the ingredients from the garden and the wood oven will be the protagonists, while our guest speakers and Hay Forum hosts are invited to read a poem of their own or someone else's in its original version.
Poems will be read by Braulio Ortíz Poole, poet; Caroline Michel, president of the Hay Festival Foundation; Julie Finch, Hay Festival CEO; Miquel Molina, writer and deputy editor of La Vanguardia; Beltrán Gambier, lawyer and editor of Intramuros magazine, and host Gioconda Scott.
The readers will be joined by master of ceremony Félix Valdivieso.
Event with readings in Spanish and English
