InnovaComiX - Lugano International Comic Art Festival - 2026

Please note that the info for this event is currently provisional. I may change plans as the festival program is slowly released.

The event:

We are visiting this year's InnovaComix in Lugano. This is an international festival, dedicated to comics and comic art. There will be workshops, panels, talks and a bookshop. And of course artist booths and dedications. The primary language of the festival is Italian, but English will also be fairly present as there will be international guests. You can find more information as well as this year's fabulous guest list here:

The logistics:

We'll meet at the train station. As the Lugano station doesn't appear to have a designated meeting point, we will simply meet on platform 2. Then we will walk for about 15 minutes to Villa Ciani [the venue]. Once we are there, everyone's welcome to head to whatever part of the event they're interested in. Please make sure to purchase your tickets before the day of the event:
