Our festival celebrates the comic arts. For this reason, we favor exhibitors who produce and sell comic books. If you have an exceptional request, we suggest you contact us first, but your company must have a strong connection with comics to be considered. Sponsorship opportunities are available for other types of companies, contact us for details.
If you are a publishing house or company, few options are available to participate to the festival.
1. Rent a space
MCAF is proud to have exhibitors ranging from self-published artists to major publishing houses. To keep our prices affordable for comic artists, we’ve created different price structures depending on whether you’re a comic artist or a publisher/company.
We propose 2 options of spaces:
Booth: A 10′ x 10′ tent space that you can arrange to your liking.
Table: One 6′ x 2,5′ table in tents shared with other exhibitors.
Registrations to rent a space are closed for 2024; stay tuned for information on 2025.
2. Become partner
A public festival that brings together over 250 comic book artists doesn’t just happen all on its own! Without the support of our partners — financial, media, service and programming — MCAF wouldn’t be possible.
