Spring Fever—Delhi’s oldest literary and cultural festival hosted by Penguin Random House India—celebrates its 8^thanniversary this March with an outstanding selection of literary and cultural highlights that reflects the success of its past years. With a lineup of highly respected and popular speakers, Spring Fever 2016 will bring to you plenty more to capture your imagination.

It is a one-of-a-kind celebration of books, reading, music, and much more, and presents a great opportunity for Delhi’s young audience to interact with their favorite authors. It is the first festival of its kind organized by an Indian publisher. We run an open-air library (a browser’s paradise) at the Amphitheatre during the day. In the evenings, the same space is transformed into a hub of literary bustle, featuring key authors, previews of forthcoming and current attractions, panel discussions around interesting and relevant topics, usually followed by music performances.

Our evening events are very popular and attract an involved audience of booklovers. Our sessions in the past have featured well-loved such as Amitav Ghosh, Ruskin Bond, Vikram Seth, Anupam Kher, William Dalrymple, Ravinder Singh, Gurcharan Das, Rama Bijapurkar, Mira Nair and Raghu Rai.
