Asian Festival of Children’s Content
22—25 May 2025

Get ready for a fast-paced, fun-filled showdown where creativity knows no bounds! Duelling Illustrators – Live! brings two talented illustrators on stage for a friendly face-off as they draw live in response to a story being read. Our illustrators must think on their feet and let their imaginations run wild — all while coping with pressure of a live audience as they bring their own interpretations of the story to life.
