Critical Literature Days 2026

The last Krilit will take place from May 15 to 17, 2026, at the Brunnenpassage in Ottakring.

Reading material for making the world a better place.

Ulli Fuchs, long-time organizer of the Critical Literature Days, presents the program of this year's Krilit, which will take place from May 15 to 17 at the Brunnenpassage in Vienna Ottakring. In a radio interview with Astrid Nischkauer, she also explains why this will probably be the last Krilit held in this form. Visitors can look forward to three days of free admission: 34 participating publishers and initiatives, 15 readings as part of the fair, an evening event, and the children's book exhibition “Yuki Reads!”
