This is very disappointing. Hopefully, things will change soon so that Angoulême Festival 2027 can happen.
BREAKING: ANGOULÊME 2026 cancelled, Bondoux defiant
Angoulême 2026 cannot go ahead. In a message from his lawyers, Franck Bondoux places the blame for the festival’s cancellation entirely on public funders, and demands to have his company 9e Art+ remain as festival organiser for the 2027 event
