The Paris Fan Festival opens its doors for the first time from May 7 to 8
For two years, physical fairs have gradually disappeared from our daily lives. Thankfully, this low period seems to be coming to an end, and many entertainment players can be seen striving to get back to normal with the expected resurgence of so many events. Among all the French salons that are resurfacing, we can count a newcomer that already has everything of a big name, namely the Paris Fan Festival, a fair centered on pop-culture as a wholewith comics, manga, films, series, and of course, a place for video games, in particular via our AG French Direct.
A show centered on pop culture with prestigious guests
The Paris Fan Festival intends to welcome many exhibitors during its two opening days, whether in the field of comics or manga, as well as with stands reserved for publishing houses such as HiComics, Mangetsu or Ki-oon ; or in the field of films and series, with exhibitions of cult superhero costumes or a spotlight on the Star Wars universe.
In order to bring together even more curious people, the Paris Fan Festival has put the dishes in the big ones by inviting international stars, who will be present on site to meet their fans. Among the distinguished guests, we can count on the presence of:
- Matt Smith (Doctor Who)
- Tyler Hoechlin (Superman and Lois)
- Holly Marie Combs (Charm)
- Charlie Heaton (stranger things)
Gaming will also have a place of choice, whether through cosplay via the exhibition heroes of the gameor through the presence of the MO5 retrogaming association. And of course, you can also find us via our latest AG French Direct.
AG French Direct will be present at the Paris Fan Fest
For the first time in its history, in addition to our traditional conference, AG French Direct will be present at a physical event, and on stage.
If our conference will take place on May 6 at 6 p.m. on our usual networks, you can also find the AGFD directly on the stage of the Paris Fan Festival on May 7, with a presentation by Ted Etienne, which will return to a dozen promising French games to come soon. A great opportunity to continue our celebration of the French and Francophone game together.
