The largest game board
of the French-speaking world is in Cannes!
International Games FestivalAge? To the cupboard!
Children’s games for all audiences, initiates or experts! But also great classics, board games modern, video, in rvirtual reality, role-playing or simulation….
The FIJ has a knack for bringing all generations together, and making the traditional 7 to 77 years old formula a little, a lot, vintage.
Here, indeed, there’s no age that matters anymore, as all audiences, absolutely all, find a game that suits them on site, every year. This is made possible by hundreds of professionals from the six corners of France, Europe and the rest of the world. Not only do they showcase their latest creations and present the latest innovations, but above all they allow everyone to play a full part, to test them on site, taking their time. A true luxury.
