FEB Belenistas

The Federación Española de Belenistas (FEB) is a nonprofit organization founded in 1963 to promote and share the art of belenismo: creating and presenting Nativity scenes. It brings together nearly 80 belenista associations in communities across Spain, supporting a network that works throughout the year from its local centers. The federation provides information about membership, its statutes, governance, and affiliated organizations, and helps coordinate activities across the network.

Its program includes national congresses, events, exhibitions, and competitions, as well as awards recognizing contributions to belenismo. The FEB also publishes news and resources related to the tradition, including Nativity-scene designs and printable cutouts, Christmas poetry, and photography. Its online agenda highlights events organized by the federation and its member associations, while publication and gallery sections share updates and examples of their work. Through these activities, the FEB serves as a central platform for associations and enthusiasts, encouraging participation and helping preserve and communicate Spain’s Nativity-scene-making tradition.
