The great toy and railway modeling fair at the historic birthplace of Jouef
Jouefissimo is an exhibition fair dedicated to railway modeling and vintage toys, organized at the Oppidum of Champagnole, the historic birthplace of the Jouef brand. The event takes place over two days in April and brings together collectors, professionals, and enthusiasts around modeling items, miniature trains, vintage toys, and figurines. A unique event in Franche-Comté for lovers of modeling and collectible toys.
Champagnole, a town in the Haut-Jura, is the historic birthplace of the famous Jouef miniature train brand, founded in 1944. It is in this historically rich context that the Jouef-39 association organizes Jouefissimo, an exhibition fair entirely dedicated to railway modeling and collectible toys. The event is held at the Oppidum, Champagnole's large event hall, on the Jean Charropin esplanade.
Jouefissimo welcomes both professionals and individuals who come to sell, exchange, and buy railway modeling items. You can find the entire Jouef production—locomotives, wagons, scenery, accessories—but also models from other brands, miniatures, figurines, and vintage toys. Working miniature railway layouts are often presented, offering a fascinating spectacle for visitors of all ages.
By organizing Jouefissimo in the very town where it all began for Jouef, the association perpetuates a strong link between Champagnole and the world of railway modeling. The 5th edition confirms the growing success of this event, which attracts enthusiasts from all over France and neighboring countries. The Oppidum, a vast, modern, and well-equipped hall, offers an ideal setting for this major event.
The 5th edition of Jouefissimo will be held on April 4th and 5th, 2026 at the Oppidum of Champagnole. Toy fair, railway modeling, and collectibles.
