Frankfurt Calling – Perspectives on Culture and Politics

Our cultural-political programme features thought leaders from all over the world, discussing the most important issues and topics of our time – throughout the entire week of the fair and on various stages.

What will be on people's minds in 2024? What are the pressing issues of world and current affairs that we need to address here and now? And perhaps even more importantly: what solutions are there to ensure a future worth living?

At Frankfurter Buchmesse 2024, Frankfurt Calling brought together international voices from areas such as politics, culture and the arts for the first time in order to find new approaches to pressing challenges from a global perspective. In cooperation with many partners, this resulted in an intellectually profound programme with cultural-political debates, lectures and renowned speakers.

Frankfurt Calling is a cultural-political programme organized by Frankfurter Buchmesse and its partners.
