Festival à 2 Bulles
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — À 2 Bulles
17th Edition — June 2025
The Festival à 2 Bulles celebrated its 17th edition on June 13 and 14, 2025, under the presidency of Gilles Rochier, a committed author of French comics known for his stories rooted in the daily life of working-class neighborhoods. Rochier curated a program in his image, bringing together 28 authors with diverse universes on the lawns of the Moulin du Roc.
Invited Authors
Among the creators present were Fabcaro, master of absurd humor and author of the phenomenon Zaï zaï zaï zaï, Tiphaine Rivière, whose drawings finely dissect societal flaws, and Deloupy, an engaged author oscillating between fiction and social commentary. The 28 authors offered signing sessions throughout the weekend.
Activities and Events
Comic strip creation workshops for young audiences, exhibitions of original plates, conferences, and concerts punctuated the two days. The green setting of the Moulin du Roc, by the Sèvre Niortaise, provided an ideal backdrop for this open-air comic celebration.
