‘Le Manege Magique’ is at the top of the cours Mirabeau, and that can only mean one thing: the annual bande-dessinée festival is starting.
It’s the 14th to be held and each year it seems to expand. This year there are 10 exhibitions running in various galleries around town until 28th May. The event kicks off this weekend with a conference based at the Cité du Livre – 50 authors will be there presenting their work to the numerous fans who attend every year. It’s a wide and detailed programme so have a look here:http://www.bd-aix.com/.
Expect to see lots of superheroes on posters around town.
And if you have children to amuse, take them for an unforgettable ride on a prehistoric animal, fire-breathing dragon or antique aircraft…all part of the Manege Magique.
