The Asian Festival of Children's Content (AFCC) is an annual festival that promotes and advocates the creation, development and appreciation of quality Asian stories for children and young adults. Organised by the Singapore Book Council, the festival's main programmes comprise conference presentations, panels, masterclasses, workshops, and lectures, as well as a line-up of free public programmes. 

AFCC is a unique event in Asia that provides opportunities for various practitioners, including writers, illustrators, translators, editors, publishers, academics, teachers, librarians and parents to meet, learn, hone their craft, and develop cross-cultural collaborations.

AFCC 2026 embraces the theme of “The Worlds We Make.” Children's literature is more vital than ever–both a mirror and a map, reflecting our diverse realities while guiding young readers to find their place in a fast-changing world, and empowering them to create the future they want. The landscape of literature is shifting, expanding to new voices and adapting to new technologies. The Worlds We Make invites us to investigate how stories can be powerful drivers of action, and our role as creators of children’s content in the futures we build, the communities we imagine, and the changes we hope to make. Experience the world of Asian kidlit at AFCC 2026!
