The Goa Arts and Literature Festival is the state's annual gathering of writers, artists, and readers, usually in December at the International Centre Goa in Dona Paula. It is smaller than Jaipur and more intimate, with an international as well as Indian guest list, which is why it is useful for BooksAffair despite being a tier-three event. The 2027 dates are not yet published. This listing uses 10–14 December 2027, a typical mid-December run. Sessions mix literature with the wider arts, so the audience includes visitors who have come to Goa as well as local readers. There is no separate large Goa book fair stable enough to list on its own; this festival is the book event to put on the calendar. Confirm the days with the organisers before travel.
