Lakes International Comic Art Festival
Whether you already know everything about comics, or it does not sound anything to you, the Lakes International Comic Art Festival will enlighten your October month. Over 70 special guests from across the comic world meet in Kendall, on the edge of the Lake District, Cumbria from Friday 13th to Sunday 15th.
Among many fabulous events, this festival will feature live comic drawing, films, exhibitions, workshops, performances and hundreds of comics.
On Friday, the Gala Opening Night will present a live drawing event with your favourite cartoonists such as Mc Garry.
On Saturday, learn all about caricaturing in Tom Richmond's masterclass. A huge fan of fairy tales? The Little Mermaid has been retold, and reinvented: you must see this. You could also meet the Belgian Ivan Petrus!
Need a little rest? Many film screenings have been organised: pick the one you want in the programme.
Eventually, on Sunday, you will learn everything about the birth of graphic novel and accompany SelfMadeHero to celebrate their tenth birthday!
But these are only highlights, there is much more to come...
A free family zone will make your festival easier, as well as weekend pass. And don't forget to pop up in the comic shop, to bring back a little souvenir of this amazing festival.
