All the movers and shakers of comic strip art are in Angoulême to make this an exceptional event with a packed programme of exhibitions, meetings, shows, conferences, exclusive sales of collectors’ items and - of course - the hugely popular signing sessions!
This year the festival will highlight mangas with the work of the mangaka Yukito Kishiro (Grand Prix 2019). Also noteworthy are the exhibitions on manga authors Yukito Kishiro and Yoshiharu Tsuge.
Not to be missed:
Drawn to music! These events bring music and drawing together. Live the unique experience of live concerts illustrated simultaneously by famous-name artists.
It’s an experience like no other: part voyage, part discovery, and many surprises along the way.
And there are, of course, the regular annual events: the Best Comic Book Award, the René Goscinny Award, the Young Talent award, the Audience award, the Thriller award and the Alternative Comic Strip award. Come and see all the latest creative work and meet your favourite authors. You’re in for some great surprises!
The festival is all over the city! So don’t miss out on this opportunity to walk the cobbled streets of old Angoulême to view the mural art that also celebrates comic strip art!
