Arcana Association

Creating the convention of our dreams

Our story

 

It's fall, in 2020, part of the committee - which didn't exist yet - finds itself in the same car. We are long-time friends and we are returning from a day of work at a cool event where we had a stand. Our discussions only tell the best moments of the day and how the atmosphere during a convention is just magical. We want more, and we hope one day to see a fantasy festival reborn. One of us then launches the idea; what if, deep down, the simplest thing wouldn't be to do it ourselves, this festival we dream of? We want fantasy, magic, we are role-players... we will call it "Arcana". We laugh, we tell ourselves that it's crazy, that we are just us, but without realizing it, the idea had become a dream. It's almost spring, it's March 2021 and this crazy project comes to life at the same time as our association. After a few hours of discussion, it was decided: Arcana would take off in September in Morrens, the home village of many of us.

The rest of the story, we owe it to all the people who believed in our project, who supported us, as much our volunteers as our sponsors, our partners and our generous donors. Our hopes for the future of Arcana are limitless: we will fight to create little by little the most beautiful convention in the world.
