Edition 2007
What on Earth has gotten into us ? Have decades of watching fantastic films let our imagination run wild ? Have we become completely disoriented by all the intergalactic time travelling ? Have all those superhero stories given us wings ? Do we believe in fairy tales ? Fact is that when it comes to this 25th anniversary edition of the Festival, THE SKY IS THE LIMIT! 300 extra seats ( less sold outs ? ), fewer days but still as many films, concerts & Dj-sets every night, and 4 times more space : for the audience, the professionals, the exhibitions and the animations. It looks like a tabula rasa where we reconstruct everything from the ground up ! You should wonder if these last 24 years where just a sort of general rehearsal for what is about to take place now. Don’t worry, we’re not suffering from megalomania. The audience remains at the heart of all things : the prices continue to be affordable, there are many free activities ( markets, conventions, animations, and, exceptionally, the Body Painting Contest ) and a shuttle service will transport spectators from and to the city centre, public transportation hubs and Tour & Taxis. The Festival and the Vampire Ball take place under one roof, there’s a restaurant, snack bar, bars, a cloak room and many stands where you can celebrate your love for the genre. Give in to your curiosity and imagination and come celebrate with us for 13 glorious and fantastic days !
