Faites du Jeu

The playful event of Grand Reims

Since 2006, the association Ludomania has organized the Faites du Jeu festival every year in Tinqueux, a town bordering Reims. This free festival has established itself as the major event for playful culture in the Marne region, bringing together families, enthusiasts, and players of all ages around a common passion: games in all their forms.

2,000 m² dedicated to games

The festival takes over three complementary spaces: the Frédérique Bronquard gymnasium for public activities and local and external gaming associations, the town hall for board game and speedcubing competitions, and the Croix Cordier park for outdoor activities. In total, over 2,000 m² are dedicated to family board games, expert games (strategy and management), and activities for toddlers.

Competitions and tournaments

Faites du Jeu offers competitions every year that attract experienced players: speedcubing (timed Rubik's Cube solving), Magic: The Gathering tournaments, Warhammer figurines competitions (Blood Bowl, Games Workshop), figurine painting contests, and modern board game tournaments. These competitions take place alongside public activities in a friendly atmosphere.

A free and family-friendly festival

Admission is free for everyone. A toddler area is set up for the youngest, with adapted games and dedicated supervision. Families can discover the latest board game releases together, try their hand at retrogaming, participate in skill games (balancing, darts, pucks), and enjoy the fast food available on site.
