Bulles en Champagne

Comics take over the hall of Vitry-le-François

Bulles en Champagne is the annual meeting for comic strip enthusiasts in Vitry-le-François. Organized by the Numi's Club, this free festival takes over the magnificent renovated and glassed-in hall in the town center every first weekend of October to host about fifty artists, publishers, and specialized merchants.

A generous and accessible festival

The strength of Bulles en Champagne lies in its friendliness and accessibility. Free admission allows everyone to discover the world of comic strips, meet authors, and get their favorite albums signed. Thematic exhibitions, activities for young audiences, and meetings with artists create a warm atmosphere conducive to exchanges and discoveries.

Prestigious presidents

Each edition is presided over by a renowned author who brings their vision and notoriety to the event. In 2025, it is Janry, the famous cartoonist of Spirou and Le Petit Spirou, who presides over the 20th edition of the festival. This tradition highlights different facets of French-language and international comic strips.

20 years of passion

In 2025, Bulles en Champagne celebrates its 20th anniversary, demonstrating the vitality and longevity of this event in the cultural landscape of the Marne region. Driven by the passionate volunteers of the Numi's Club, the festival has grown and retained an ever-larger audience, making Vitry-le-François a recognized destination for lovers of the ninth art.
