Accessibility
Every year, CITIA makes the Festival even more accessible and inclusive for people with disabilities.
An Official Commitment
At the end of 2019, CITIA signed a "Charte H+ Culture", joining the project launched by the Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Its aim is to showcase all the wonderful initiatives brought in favour of people with disabilities, over and above the baseline imposed by the law, and to introduce "handi-care, handi-welcome and handi-inclusive".
Practical Information
Download our PDF 2025 Accessibility Guide, which is also available in immersive reading mode. This document lays out all the details of our progressive improvement plans. Whether you have a physical or mental disability, visual or auditive impairment, it has been designed to enable you to better prepare your attendance at the Festival.

Making animation accessible
The Festival is committed to ensuring that animation films are accessible to all audiences by using various specially adapted measures.
Some screenings and events offer facilities adapted to specific disabilities (audio description, sign language, inclusive workshops).
Difference Animates the Festival
Since 2022, the City of Annecy and the Annecy Festival have been jointly organising this day to raise awareness to audiences about inclusion through animation film. In 2026, mental disability will take centre stage in this event. Join us on Wednesday 24th June at the Seynod Town Hall.
