Prepare your period costumes, adjust your cogs and polish your monocle for a spectacular immersion in the fascinating world of Steampunk. Europe's largest railway museum invites you on a retro-futuristic journey where Victorian elegance meets extraordinary steam engines.

Inspired by the novels of Jules Verne, Steampunk reinvents a 19th century of incredible technological advances. This artistic and cultural movement plunges its followers into a world where mechanical ingenuity blends with refined aesthetics. Whether you're an enthusiast or just curious, this unique event has plenty of surprises in store for you.

Art exhibitions will showcase talents such as Didier Graffet, who will be signing books, and Sam Van Olffen and Catherine Biehler, who will be presenting striking live works. Conferences hosted by Arthur Morgan and Pomm3 Cosplay will plunge you into the secrets and history of Steampunk, enriching your knowledge of this captivating universe.

Throughout the festival, strolling entertainment will surprise visitors. The gramophone will resound with fascinating anecdotes, while the Futuravapeur company and its spectacular stilt walkers will set the aisles alight. Céleste Coquemille, Gaspard Brignantin and their acolytes will entertain the crowd with playful theatrical performances, and Santa Desdemona will enchant music lovers. For the more adventurous, L'Antre de Jack offers daring culinary challenges.

Challenge fans can take part in Steampunk duels orchestrated by Vany and Aernor, or test their skills with ancient games. The world of costume will also be in the spotlight, with an exhibition of retro-futuristic outfits and a live creation by Grisette and Mister Asticot.

Period crafts will take pride of place with artisanal printing demonstrations by Imprima'Scrap, while creative workshops will enable visitors to customize their own Steampunk accessories under the guidance of Benjamin Black Flame. The curio market will offer a multitude of unique objects and accessories to complete your look.

To prolong the experience, a period Gazette will be distributed to visitors, offering anecdotes and previously unpublished information on this fascinating universe. Dive into the future imagined by the past and experience a timeless adventure during this exceptional weekend!
