Spanish-Language Architecture Festival (FAE) 2025

Spanish Architecture Festival (FAE) 2025
September 4–5 · Mexico City
This September, Mexico City will become the epicenter of Spanish-language architecture with the 2025 edition of the Spanish Architecture Festival, an international gathering celebrating contemporary thought and practice.
Over two days, key voices in global architecture will gather at iconic sites of Mexican modern heritage to tour, inhabit, and reflect upon them through shared experience.
A curated architectural experience.
Designed as an intimate gathering, the Festival offers close access to its international guests: direct conversations, guided tours of Modern Movement works, and moments of connection where dialogue transcends the professional.
It is not just about talking about architecture, but about inhabiting it, exploring it in company, and sharing it through experience.
The program is framed by an exclusive multi-course meal prepared by chef Miguel Sánchez Navarro—creator of CARDO—accompanied by cocktails, with transportation included to facilitate the experience.
Venues
September 4 – Los Manantiales, Xochimilco
The first day will take place at the iconic Los Manantiales, a work by Félix Candela nestled among the canals of Xochimilco. This reinforced concrete shell—one of the architect's most emblematic structures—stands as a symbol of 20th-century structural experimentation and formal beauty.
September 5 – Bacardí Plant, Tultitlán
The second day moves to the Bacardí Plant in the State of Mexico, an exceptional enclave that brings together two key works of the Modern Movement: the bottling plant designed by Félix Candela and the office building designed by Mies van der Rohe. A setting where industrial architecture becomes a manifesto.

Tishman Speyer Pavilion features works by Tomie Ohtake, Artur Lescher, and Amélia Toledo

The Tishman Speyer Pavilion was conceived to engage with the urban space—facilitating experiences, the exchange of ideas, and connections—while simultaneously serving as a refuge from the bustle of modern life. Open to the public free of charge, the space brings together works by renowned artists such as Artur Lescher, Tomie Ohtake, and Amélia Toledo.
The Pavilion is a work of art that provides experiences and connects the neighborhood to the future. The architectural design was developed by Atelier Peclat and consists of sandblasted glass block walls, reviving an element of 1960s architecture. This structure lends an intangible quality to the space, with its transparencies and opacities, creating a sense of mystery through the interplay of light and shadow formed between the interior and exterior areas.
