The Communist Party of Cuba (PCC) and the Young Communist League have announced the Granma Rebelde International Festival, set to take place in Havana from October 17 to 20, 2025. This landmark event commemorates the 60th anniversaries of Granma and Juventud Rebelde, two iconic newspapers established by Fidel Castro, the revered leader of the Cuban Revolution. The Festival aims to serve as a dynamic platform for political, academic, cultural, and grassroots exchanges, fostering dialogue, solidarity, and cooperation grounded in critical thought. It will address pressing global challenges to peace and social justice, uniting participants in a shared commitment to progressive ideals. The event invites communist, left-wing, and progressive youth organizations, social movements, media outlets, and academic and cultural institutions to join in confronting media manipulation and imperialist tactics that distort realities and fuel fascism and neocolonialism. Granma and Juventud Rebelde, steadfast in their dedication to truth and unity, have played pivotal roles in advancing Cuba’s socialist project. The Festival will culminate on October 20, coinciding with Cuban Culture Day, and will also honor the upcoming centennial of Fidel Castro’s birth in August 2026. Additionally, Havana will host the 3rd International Meeting of Theoretical Publications of Left Parties and Movements from October 15 to 17, providing a vital forum for discussing emerging political theories and practices. The PCC and Young Communist League eagerly anticipate welcoming participants to Havana for this historic celebration.
