The essential gaming event in the North

Since its creation, LudiNord has established itself as the premier gaming event in the Hauts-de-France region. Organized by the Fédéjeux association, this annual festival transforms the Fort de Mons-en-Barœul into a vast playground of over 5,000 m², welcoming families, enthusiasts, and the curious to discover the world of games in all its forms.

A rich and varied program

The festival offers a dense program spread over two full days. Visitors can test the year's new games before their official release, meet the authors and illustrators who design these games, and participate in numerous workshops and activities.

Board games and prototypes

At the heart of LudiNord, dozens of tables allow visitors to discover and try out the latest board games. Publishers and independent creators also present their prototypes, offering the public an exclusive glimpse of the games of tomorrow. It's a unique opportunity to interact directly with designers and provide feedback on mechanics currently in development.

Role-playing games and immersive universes

LudiNord gives pride of place to role-playing games with sessions led by experienced game masters. A recreated medieval village immerses visitors in an era atmosphere, with costumes, decorations, and themed activities. Live-action role-playing enthusiasts will also find their happiness with interactive scenarios.

The LudiNuit

A highlight of the festival, the LudiNuit on Saturday evening extends the gaming experience from 9:30 PM to 6:00 AM. In a unique nocturnal atmosphere, the most passionate gamers play games continuously in a friendly and festive atmosphere, far from the usual time constraints.

A place steeped in history

The Fort de Mons, a former 19th-century military fortification, offers an atypical and spacious setting for the festival. Its vast vaulted halls and outdoor spaces are perfectly suited for organizing an event of this scale, blending historical heritage with contemporary gaming culture.

LudiNord aims to be a family-friendly and accessible event. Admission is priced at €4 per day, free for children under 10 years old. Dedicated areas for younger children allow families to fully enjoy the festival, with games suitable for all ages.
