THE VILLA LE CERCLE, THE FESTIVAL'S HEADQUARTERS
An important novelty of the 2016 edition, the festival leaves the C.I.D for the Villa Le Cercle. Until now under the glass roof of the C.I.D, publishers, booksellers, meetings and youth area will be installed there. You will also find the Planet'R Bookstore and the Librairie du Marché.
For three days, you have an appointment at the Villa Le Cercle, a magnificent building of the deauvillais heritage. It will be both a place of information and a meeting place. It is also where the largest bookstore in France dedicated to Italian literature is located, with its publishers and reading areas.
