Young Literature Festival Aachen in the Aachen City Library
As part of the "JuLiFe - Young Literature Festival Aachen", the city library is offering a special program for children, young people and families. From June 15 to 28, 2026, the "JuLiFe" invites children, young people and families to rediscover stories, creativity and literature.
While the morning program is aimed at schools and daycare centers, the afternoon events are open to all interested parties. The program includes readings, creative workshops, hands-on activities and numerous opportunities to try out and discover.
The activities on offer include workshops with glow-in-the-dark paints and BeeBots learning robots, a colorful family afternoon with a stamp hunt and other creative activities based around books and stories.
All events are free of charge. Registration is required for some events due to limited space. The full program and further information are available at: www.aachen.de/julife
