Festi D'Lire Jeunes
Youth book festival and free activities in Allevard, Grésivaudan
About Festi D'Lire Jeunes
The Festi D'Lire Jeunes is a festive and entirely free day dedicated to books and reading for young people, from early childhood to late adolescence. From 10 AM to 6 PM, at the La Pléiade hall in Allevard, it combines a youth book fair featuring about twenty local authors with a rich program of activities, shows, and games for the whole family.
Organized by the ABAcc association, Festi D'Lire Jeunes aims to prove that reading continues to attract young people, from early childhood to almost adults. For one day, the La Pléiade hall transforms into a major youth book event, where children and teenagers meet authors, attend shows, and participate in various activities.
Beyond the book fair, the event gives pride of place to creation and play: workshops by local associations, live performances, a parade imagined by young people, and the awards ceremony for the festival's short story competition. A day conceived as a friendly celebration of reading, in the Grésivaudan region, between Détrier and Saint-Pierre-d'Allevard.
