22nd Edition — February 13 to March 9, 2025
For its 22nd edition, the Arcomik festival extended its program over four weeks, from February 13 to March 9, 2025, taking over the performance venues of Saint-Étienne and its metropolitan area. With 25 shows programmed, this edition confirmed the dynamism and attractiveness of the festival, with a third of the performances already sold out as soon as the program was announced.
The program mixed big names from the French comedy scene and discoveries, true to the festival's DNA which combines artistic excellence and popular accessibility. The Murder Gala, an original creation imagined by Élodie Arnould around the concept of "Murder Party," was one of the highlights of this edition, bringing together on stage Jean-Luc Lemoine, Swann Périssé, Donel Jack'sman, and the trio LEJ. The gala evening was filmed by France Télévisions and broadcast on France 3 on March 14, 2025.
Cultural mediation actions continued with the New Talents competition, workshops in community centers, and the micro-magazine produced by young local journalists.
