9/01/2009 - 9/30/2009Raptus Bergen Comic Festival

First held in 1995, the annual Raptus Bergen Comic Festival is the biggest event of its kind in the country. Visitors to the event can expect rows and rows of stalls selling comic book classics as well as newer creations. It also provides a chance to learn from the masters at a series of lectures and seminars hosted by some of the world's most celebrated comic writers and cartoonists. There is a great social atmosphere and the night before the festival officially opens there is the now infamous 'will draw for drink' night hosted at one of the local pubs.
