Tickets for this year's Lakes International Comic Art Festival, taking place 15th - 17th October are now on sale
Good news! Tickets for this year's Lakes International Comic Art Festival, taking place 15th - 17th October are now on sale, and the full programme of events has just been published, so please, do take a look!
As usual, our Festival features a great opening event - a fun-packed "Balloon Debate" involving creators in Kendal and New York, where you, the audience, decide which famous comic character survives impending disaster; and the weekend will again be busy with live draws, Comics Up Close, international comic collaborations, daft comic challenges, masterclasses, discussions, expert talks and, of course, the Comics Clock Tower is back!
Our guests this October include Charlie Adlard, Steven Appleby, Yomi Ayeni, Sayra Begum, Neill Cameron, Kate Charlesworth, Darryl Cunningham, Nicola Jennings, Olivier Kugler, Michael Lark, Jeff Lemire (making a virtual appearance due to COVID-shifted work schedules), Leomacs, Luke McGarry, Steve McGarry, Ziki Nelson, Wam Ning, Jacob Phillips, Sean Phillips, David A. Roach, Martin Rowson, Rachael Smith, Lucy Sullivan, Jack Teagle, Clarice Tudor, the VIZ team and Steve Yeowell.
We're really looking forward to welcoming you back to Kendal in October - we do hope you'll join us for a comics-packed weekend!
