Iberian and Latin American Week 2024

Iberian and Latin American Week Festival 27th September - 4th October 2024

Iberian and Latin American Studies at the University of Liverpool, founded in 1934 as the Department of Hispanic Studies, is one of the most renowned in the UK. This section strives tirelessly to continue disseminating the study of Hispanic languages and cultures both in British Academia and in the general public. 

One of the department's main activities to meet this goal is a week of cultural activities: the Iberian and Latin American Week. This week featured, in the past, young artists, film screenings, gastronomy, literature and music events, etc. All activities aim to spread Hispanic, Lusophone, Catalan, and Basque cultures among students and the general public. In order to achieve maximum impact of activities outside the university, and to bring these cultures closer to the inhabitants of Liverpool, some events are held in local businesses, where collaboration links have been established.
