La Rochelle Festival: The HPI star will be the president of the jury for the 25th edition

The La Rochelle TV Fantasy Festival returns this year from September 12 to 17 to celebrate its twenty-fifth anniversary with a new edition that promises to be as rich and diverse as ever.

This unmissable event, both for professionals of the sector and for the public, as every year, will try to highlight the best of French creativity.

Last year, no less than 44 works will be presented at the official competition, including 25 French fiction, 10 European, 5 foreign French language works and 4 foreign short format.

If the choice of this 2023 edition is still a secret, it will once again celebrate the freedom, courage and height of French, European and French-speaking foreign creativity.

This 25th edition will be an unmissable event at the beginning of the school year with the historical broadcasters (TF1, France Télévisions, M6, Arte and Canal+) coming to present their new programs that will reflect the evenings of the viewers throughout the season.

Chaired last year by actress, director and screenwriter Sandrine Bonaire, this 25th edition will be hosted by Audrey Fleureau, one of the most emblematic faces of French television.

The actor is definitely the star of HPI, the TF1 detective series that has broken all records since its inception and has managed to gather millions of viewers to their television screens every week. The series has already been renewed for a fourth season.

He was also at last year’s La Rochelle Festival of Fiction to present Esprit d’hiver in competition, as well as previewing the first episodes of Les Combattantes. Audrey Floro will therefore head the jury, whose identity will be announced at the end of August, for this 25th edition of the La Rochelle Art Festival.

Meet from September 12 to 17 to discover the anniversary edition of the La Rochelle Television Arts Festival.
