For those of you who love  reading poetry, are writers themselves or are simply interested in literary texts, the Lana Literature Days are a must. Lectures and talks presented by well-known writers, poets and artists are dedicated to the poetry aspects of literary history, making the Literature Days a unique festival of its kind.

The LANA LITERATURE DAYS are organised by the Verein cer Bücherwürmer (literally, "The Bookworms Association") which, together with the South Tyrolean Association of Artists/Literature, also awards the MERANO POETRY PRIZE, a competition that has become one of the key events of the German-speaking literature scene.

During the award finals, poets read from their yet unpublished works, whichs are analysed by a first-rate panel of judges. The award ceremony is followed by talks and debates on contemporary poetry.

In German language only.
