FOOD AND REFRESHMENTS:

A genuine traditional French baker is providing food for Ldoll Festival 2011! We have ordered croissants and pains au chocolat for your brunch and sandwiches for your lunch. Tea and coffee, as well as mineral water, sodas and juices will also be available to quench your thirst from chatting all day with your fellow BJD fans.

We apologize in advance for the limited panel of products we will be providing. As we are no restaurant, we focused on fresh, friendly, affordable food .



MAKE-UP WORKSHOP:

The make-up workshop is now full. All signed up attendees are invited to join Cycy for one hour on Saturday at 2:00 pm and on Sunday at 2:00 pm. A microphone announcement will remind you of the beginning of the workshop. Everyone who has received an email confirmation is signed up for the workshop. You must come with your own doll head that you will have sprayed with MSC in advance. Do not hesitate if you have any specific question or if you wish to use your own make-up equipment rather than what we will be providing.

Your wishes and needs will determine the way this workshop will go. We hope to help you improve your skills and make you want to paint your dolls! Our friend and popular face-up artist Esthy has offered to help Cycy coach our attendees in order to give her more time to devote to each of you.

Concerning MSC, we remind you that it is STRICTLY forbidden to use any inside of the festival hall. This is a toxic product, and other attendees including children should not be exposed to it. The security team of our staff will be particularly vigilant on this issue. We call on to your honesty and sense of responsibility to prevent the poisoning of people around you.

We strongly advise you to protect yourself and wear a protection mask every time you use solvents at home.
Should our security team report an incriminating smell of MSC on a booth, we will have no other choice but to take action and sanction those involved to protect our visitors and exhibitors.



INFORMATION AT THE DESK:

A paper program will be waiting for you at the entrance of the exhibition hall with a recap of all professional and private sellers, the schedule of our main events for both days (contests, workshops, etc). A microphone announcement will precede every event to bring them to your attention.
The Ldoll Info booth is also set up especially to answer any of your question and need! On this booth you will also be able to purchase raffle tickets!



LDOLL GOODIES:

Many of you have inquired how they could support Ldoll Festival and whether we would be selling Ldoll goodies. This year, we have created a small backpack with the logo and colors of this Second Edition (blue and black). Each bag will be sold 5 Euro.
We hope you will find it useful and fun!


We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support and we can't wait to meet you in person at Ldoll Festival 2011!


PS: We apologize for any delay in replaying to your emails and question. Time is running out before the Festival and our staff is busy making sure everything is ready for D-day. Thank you for your understanding!

                         The Ldoll team.
