Q: I just have to go meet the guest to get an autograph?

A: No, it's not that easy: to get an autograph, you must have a signing ticket, which you can get from our mobile app. It gives you access to the corresponding signing.

A: No, even for the same artist. A signing ticket is only valid for the signing it indicates.
Moreover, you cannot have another ticket for another signing by the same artist. Eacg attendee is only allowed one signing - and thus, one signing ticket - per guest for the whole duration of the festival.

Q: Can I get the signing ticket just before the signing?

A: To make sure you can get one, you should go get it on the app as soon as your entrance ticket has been scanned. For some guests, we are out of signing tickets very quickly.

A: No, signing tickets for the day’s signings are only available from the morning of that same day.

Q: How much are signings?

A: All signings by the festival guests on official signing areas (Sumiré area) are free. Yet you may be asked to bring an official product bought on site for the autograph.
