      What is Ldoll Festival?

Ldoll Festival is a convention and trade fair that will be held on October 6-7, 2011, at Double Mixte, a convention center in the close surroundings of French city Lyon.
The Festival is meant to bring together as many professionals, artists and amateurs as possible from the Asian ball-jointed dolls (BJD) collecting world.

BJDs are fully customizable resin dolls, with ball joints that allow for a wide range of poses and moves. They are often used as subjects of artistic work, such as sewing and painting, as models for photography, and as inspiration for many graphic artists and writers.

In the last five years, the community of BJD owners and fans has been growing at a fast rate. Members are from all countries, making the community truly international, while the objects they collect are mainly sold by Asian professional distributors. Therefore, the main market and the second-hand market both work almost exclusively through online shopping and (e)mail order.

We have created a sizable, international event to give the opportunity to collectors from all over the world to find in one place as many BJD companies as possible. We want to give you the opportunity to meet those exhibitors, professionals and amateurs whose work you love and to buy face to face from them.

This is our way to contribute to developing this hobby. We hope that Ldoll Festival can bring artists and their fans closer together!


The first edition of Ldoll Festival took place on October 9-10, 2010 at the Double Mixte Convention Center and had a resounding success among the visitors and exhibitors. We invite you to have a look at the pictures of this first edition in our gallery!
