This year we celebrate the amazing world of Belgian comics with a special publication, genuine Belgian frites and a comic all about Belgian beer! We also focus some of our attention on horror and areas of comics which push boundaries and have some exciting elements of the programme to offer you which will stop you in your tracks. Alongside this there’s the usual broad range of genres and events to appeal to all tastes and ages. Thank you to Junko Mizuno for our fabulous festival artwork, to all of our guests and exhibitors, to our partners and funders and to our loyal and enthusiastic audiences without whom the EVENTS festival would not thrive.
