C'est parti pour les inscriptions artistes de Polymanga 2023 (7-10 avril au 2m2c de Montreux). Les stands artistes sont gratuits, mais se font sur sélection !
Pour demander un stand, il suffit de le faire via le formulaire de contact du site internet de Polymanga.com du 15 décembre 2022 au 15 janvier 2023 dans la catégorie Artistes.
Il faudra inclure 3 illustrations par artiste. La sélection est individuelle.
Le fanart, le dessin érotique, le dessin généré par une intelligence artificielle sont interdits dans les 3 illustrations que vous présentez pour la sélection de Polymanga. Les 3 illustrations doivent être choisies parmi celles que vous n'avez pas encore présentées à l'organisation. Mettez tout votre coeur sur ces 3 créations car nous ne jugerons que sur ces 3 dessins. Il arrive que certains artistes talentueux négligent cette phase et soient refusés car leurs 3 dessins ont été faits à la va-vite.
Sur place, les dessins érotiques ou pornographiques, les dessins de personnes qui fument, les dessins générés par les intelligences artificielles et les copies sont interdits sur le salon qu’ils soient exposés sur le stand ou dans un classeur fermé. Il n’est pas permis d’avoir un classeur de dessins interdits à Polymanga “sur demande” ou de faire des commandes reliées aux sujets interdits à Polymanga. Le fanart est accepté pour autant qu'il ne corresponde pas à + de 50% des créations affichées sur le stand. Les dessins violents sont soumis à l’appréciation des organisateurs.
La date limite d'envoi du formulaire est le 15 janvier 2023 à 23h59. Vous saurez à partir du 23 janvier si vous faites partie des heureux élus.
Le fichier que vous nous envoyez ne doit pas dépasser 10 Mo.
Le fichier qui regroupe vos 3 dessins doit être au format ZIP ou PDF (pas de format RAR). Vous pouvez aussi nous transmettre des liens vers les images en question.
Toutes les personnes sélectionnées pour avoir un stand doivent participer au concours de dessin Ma Bulle à Polymanga avant le festival et à Arting Spirit 3.0 – Clip Studio Paint qui se déroule pendant le festival.
NB: La catégorie "artistes" est réservée aux dessinateurs, nous n'avons pas de stands réservés aux scénaristes qui ne dessinent pas.
At Polymanga we have decided to get rid of cans and plastic bottles. This decision reduces our waste by more than 50%! In return, we offer the official bottle of Polymanga 2020 to everyone who takes their first drink. It’s waterproof and you can keep it long after the festival.
Better still: if you already have the Polymanga bottle or if you come with your own bottle, the 3dl refill of your bottle is half price compared to the price of a classic drink!
Visitors will be accustomed to using water bottles, they are offered as gifts and the price of drinks for visitors is halved once the water bottle is acquired.
It is an artistic contest taking place DURING the festival. Visitors can witness the creation process of every artist and therefore discover their universe in real live.
All artists having a stand at Polymanga must participate.
During Polymanga's first day (Friday the 7th of April), at the opening, the artists will know the topic. 2 hours later the first artists will be randomly picked and will have to start the Arting-Spirit contest on the artistic platforms dedicated for the occasio, outside their artist stands.
Each artist will have 2 hours, one by one, to submit his or her creation on CLIP STUDIO PAINT. Their creation process will be released live during the festival and then on the internet and social networks.
On Monday the 10th of April, a jury will judge each creation secretly. The one that gets the highest grade will win the contest. The winner will earn 1600CHF, the 2nd 1000CHF, the 3rd 500CHF, the 4th 250CHF and the 5th 100CHF. The Polymanga reward is 500CHF.
The winners will be announced publicly during the pubic ceremony in which every artist will briefly explain his or her artistic process.
Polymanga hopes to achieve a new objective with the theme of “Pop culture is good”. We believe that pop culture, as well as being fun for you, can be great for doing good things around us. The concepts of charity duels and 40,000 moves for the planet are part of it, but this is just the beginning!

On instagram I share my daily life and especially a lot of stories and pictures of my wonderful cat, Lord Pipoune, the most beautiful cat in Belgium (Yes, all these titles are official).
