The festival Gráficas! begins on 5 November 2026 in Málaga. The fourth edition opens with illustrators Ana Miralles and Aneke in a discussion hosted by the Centro Andaluz de las Letras According to the Junta de Andalucía , the festival is scheduled to run from 5 to 7 November 2026; the opening in Málaga is the focus of the first day.
The organisers emphasise that Gráficas! brings together women artists from Spain, France and the United States, putting the work of women cartoonists and illustrators centre stage. The programme includes panel discussions, talks, masterclasses and an accompanying exhibition. According to the announcement, the exhibition, titled “Las viñetas de Gráficas! 26”, will be on display in the Salón de Actos at the Centro Andaluz de las Letras from 5 November 2026 to 31 January 2027.
A welcome address on 5 November will be given by Justo Navarro, director of the Centro Andaluz de las Letras. The curators Natacha Bustos and Esther Cruz are named as the guides to the programme. The festival is also taking some events out into the province: Ana Miralles is scheduled to appear at Biblioteca Municipal de Fuengirola on 6 November, followed by Aneke in Benalmádena on 7 November.
The fourth edition’s programme combines presentations and discussions about the work with professional development events. Its focus is on the artistic perspectives of women illustrators and authors working across different areas of graphic literature—from albums and graphic novels to magazine formats. The international line-up, with guests from France and the United States alongside Spanish participants, is intended to encourage discussion of working methods, publishing routes and markets. This aim is explicitly attributed to the announcements; the organisers have not quantified visitor forecasts or economic impact.
The venues and dates are clearly specified: opening in Málaga on 5 November, further events in Fuengirola on 6 November and Benalmádena on 7 November. The exhibition “Las viñetas de Gráficas! 26” runs until 31 January 2027 at the Centro Andaluz de las Letras. Gráficas! thus brings together a compact programme of public events and a longer-running exhibition across Málaga province; all dates are based on published notices from the Junta de Andalucía and the Centro Andaluz de las Letras.
