A Ship of Books was scheduled from 21 to 27 April 2023 on the occasion of The Day of Books and Roses which is the 23rd of April as the World Book and Copyright Day and Sant Jordi.

The journey by boat was animated by a rich program of readings, theater performances, film projections, meetings, presentations of the writers and book launches around this year's theme: "The Culture of Europeans".

Starting from the 2023 edition, and for the following ones in 2024 and 2025,  students and teachers will be involved, namely the five classes from Katerini (Greece), Istanbul (Turkey), Sofia (Bulgaria), Vigo (Spain) and Salerno (Italy), which will be added to the hundreds of participants (educational institutions, as well as families).

In Barcelona we have also identified sites, museums, artistic heritage of particular interest, in line with the project, thus defining a tour and activities that were carried out.
