Galician Literature Day, or "Día das Letras Galegas" in Galician, is an annual celebration held in the Galicia region of Spain on May 17th. This day honors Galician literature and pays tribute to Galician writers and poets who have contributed significantly to the literary heritage of the region.
The celebration typically includes various cultural events, such as readings, literary gatherings, book fairs, exhibitions, and performances, all dedicated to promoting and celebrating Galician language and literature. It's a day for Galicians to reflect on their cultural identity and linguistic heritage, as well as to recognize the importance of literature in preserving and enriching their cultural legacy. Each year, a different Galician writer is chosen as the honoree, and their life and works are highlighted throughout the festivities.
