After a hiatus in 2024, the Alicante Noir literary festival returns to the city with a permanent venue and fixed programming. The festival, dedicated to the noir and crime genres, returns with renewed vigour to celebrate its fourth edition at Casa Mediterráneo.

The former Benalúa station thus becomes its permanent venue, where it will organise a dozen monthly events aiming to establish itself as a key cultural space for the development and expansion of the event.

This new collaboration with Casa Mediterráneo allows the Alicante Noir festival to make "a qualitative leap" with a "more ambitious programming that reaffirms its position as a cultural reference in the region," as explained by the diplomatic institution.

The series of events will kick off on January 30 with its inauguration, featuring two prominent figures of the genre, such as Yussef El Moimouni and Cristina Higueras. The evening at Casa Mediterráneo will mark the start of a cycle of activities that will continue throughout the year, except for July and August.

Among the new proposals of Alicante Noir are meetings with authors, interviews, novel presentations, book signings, and the awarding of the 'Casa Mediterráneo Prize', a new accolade recognising the work of an international author residing in a Mediterranean country, alongside the 'Alicante Noir Prize' dedicated to national writers.

The renewed proposal of the Alicante Noir festival at Casa Mediterráneo, with thirty prestigious authors in its calendar, aims to attract an "increasingly broad and diverse" audience that will be able to enjoy a quality cultural offering throughout the year.

Moreover, the festival also aims to serve as a bridge to discover new talents and explore the latest trends in the noir genre in Spain and the Mediterranean, all under its "firm commitment" to cultural promotion, equality, and support for emerging voices.
