In 2013, Brussels is going to experience a highly colourful weekend from 5-8 September, with its now famous Comics Festival taking place in Place des Palais, the event will also include a 3D projection mapping on the Place Royale, the Balloon’s Day Parade, the Tintin magazine, guided visits and comics exhibitions at the festival and throughout the city, in particular at the Palais des Beaux Arts (BOZAR) and at the Belgian Comic Strip Centre.
All aboard at Place des Palais! Billions
of blistering blue barnacles! Comic strips lovers will be able to visit bookshops, publishers, museums, exhibitions, boutiques and numerous animations for both adults and children. Get ready to bump into characters who have stepped straight out of their 'box' purely to meet you.
To celebrate the Comics Festival, take part in an original concept: a colourful dinner to honour our paper heroes! This lively event with a "street food" theme will particularly appeal to children and families.
On the menu: exquisite creativity; a cartoon universe and animations rich with drama, al served up in the famed Brussels Food Trucks! To top everything off, diners will also be able to see a sound and light show put on as part of the Comics Festival.
Balloon’s Day Parade
As in every other year, a new balloon will be created to adorn the Balloon’s Day Parade again.
The "Tintin magazine" car rally
This year, in collaboration with Moulinsart, a rally involving around forty cars and motorcycles represented in the boards of different comic strips from the Tintin magazine will leave from Place des Palais and will then pass through different mythical comic strip places in Brussels and through the Hergé Museum.
On their return to Place des Palais, the cars will be evaluated by a jury selected by Moulinsart and the most authentic among them will be officially named "The Tintin magazine car". The cars will them remain exhibited for the rest of the day to be admired by all!
