El Librotazo - The Big Book Party
July 14, 2026 | 5-7:30 p.m. | Chesterfield County Fairgrounds
CCPS is empowering children through the magic of reading by providing free books for home libraries at this family literacy event.
At El Librotazo, the Big Book Party, every child can choose up to five books to keep. That’s right: Every child from birth through high school will get books for their home libraries. That’s why this is a big book party!
There is no cost to attend, take home books, or enjoy fun and food at El Librotazo. Thanks to the support from the Chesterfield Education Foundation, Dominion Energy, HappyKidz, Fayad Law, and the Old Dominion Group. Families are asked to register by July 8 for free tickets. We have a limit of 3,500 attendees.
