The bookstores of Ibiza have deployed their novelties in the Paseo de Vara de Rey. Despite the rain early in the morning and having to assemble with some delay to the usual, books and flowers have been able to take to the streets this April 23.
Among the public this morning, the children stood out. From early in the morning, ‘escoletes’, schools and institutes stroll through the central square enjoying the school day in a different way.

Expectations for booksellers are good, as they have assured Diario de Ibiza.
Never before had there been so many bookstalls and roses during a Sant Jordi’s day in Vara de Rey. In total 51 stands (bookstores, publishers, institutions, associations and florists), eleven more than last year.

As already reported this week from the City Council of Ibiza, “all the books have a special 10% discount to encourage reading and access to culture.”
