The festival is held over a period of 12 days in early July.
A shorter indoor version of the festival (FLIP d'hiver) runs in November.
The festival is organised by the communauté de communes of Parthenay, with the support of many different partners and sponsors.
Traditionally, the festival is divided into a number of themed 'villages' spread throughout Parthenay.
