I had a film in the commissioned film competition, which meant I got a festival pass but I had to pay my for own hotel. I went with my husband and we teamed up with another couple and got an AirBnB plce which worked out fine. Annecy is always booked to the brim for the festival.
My husband had to pay for his accreditation, but I was very pleased to find out when we arrived that he was invited to most of the parties with me, or I could just bring him in even if he didn't have an invitation. There was a heat wave this year, so we swam in the lake every day and went to evening screenings and parties.
There are mixed opinions, but I had a great time. If you have a film in the festival it's certainly worth the plane ticket to go! This is the highlight of the European animation calendar. Best projection of my film I've seen at a festival too, but if you aren't in competition you don't get to stand up or do any Q&A, which is a bit of a bummer.
The town is stunning and the food is French.
