Délivrées! The Feminist Book Fair returns to Paris from November 6–8, 2026, at the Halle des Blancs Manteaux in the Marais. Organized by Femmes Solidaires and Clara magazine, this free-entry event brings together literature, essays, comics, cinema, and live performance to explore women's rights and power dynamics.
The program spans three days of encounters, debates, readings and screenings. On Friday, November 6, Diariatou Kébé presents Les Puissantes, a study of Francophone Black women, while Pascal Picq addresses violence against women. Nesrine Slaoui will discuss L’estime de soi est politique. This opening day also features Angélique Cauchy’s photographic exhibition (é)preuves and the choreographic performance Un corps, des corps, nos corps by Julie Vuoso.
On Saturday, November 7, several strands of storytelling come into conversation. Sandrine Mirza examines the history of science as it relates to women, Grace Ly presents Les Nouveaux Territoires, and a roundtable brings together Nelly Sanoussi and Elyssa Bejaoui to discuss dystopian novels aimed at young readers. The day also features a Q&A with Romane Bohringer and Clémentine Autain after the screening of Dites-lui que je l’aime, along with discussions with Sarah Ourahmoune, Giulia Foïs, and Sandrine Rousseau.
On Sunday, November 8, Anne-Cécile Mailfert will speak about demography and Claudine Cohen on the origins of male domination. Samira El Ayachi, Frédéric Pommier and Violaine de Filippis-Abate are also on the program. The screenings for this final day include, notably, Iceland, A Day Without Women by Pamela Hogan, Fabienne B., A Bad Girl by Emérance Dubas, and Dolly Parton: America Reconciled by Nicolas Maupied.
As the encounters unfold, the fair weaves together history, contemporary investigations, fiction and imagery. The public can visit the Halle des Blancs Manteaux, at 48 Rue Vieille-du-Temple in the 4th arrondissement, from 11:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. over the three days. Admission is free.
