Several of our favorite poi spinners will be attending the EJC in Finland this summer, along with probably a couple hundred other poi enthusiasts. The European Juggling Convention is the largest object manipulation event in the world and draws hundreds of people each summer from dozens of countries. Every day is a mix of free workshops (although they can be very crowded). Nick and Pali probably won't be able to make it this year, but next year in Germany almost for sure!

Nick and Alien Jon are coming to Fusion Festival!
It's going to be amazing. See you there!

NOTE: WE NEED TENT(S) FOR FUSION!
Contact us ASAP if we can ride with you!

The European Juggling Convention is the world's biggest juggling event. It draws hundreds of poi spinners, and thousands of jugglers, together for ten days of workshops, performances, collaboration, and celebration. Most of my European friends say it was their favorite event last summer in Europe, and this year is looking just as good, as many of my best friends and favorite poi artists are going.

This year the EJC is in Vitoria-Gasteiz, in northern Spain, come join us!

The biggest juggling convention in the world has become a mecca for poi spinners and twirlers of all types. This year's event will be near Athens, Greece. I'm hoping to get there. Either way it's an event worth going to. Days full of workshops, nights full of performances and silly juggling people having fun.

I've missed the Play Festival for the past few years, and I had to listen to everybody go on at great length about how fun it was, and this year I'm going to get there some how. So there.

Organized by the Mighty Duncan, the Play Festival is England's most loved and attended poi/staff/silliness gathering. Music, performances, bands, games, debauchery, silly English people and their non-Englsh friends. Go to this event if you can. I will be there. You'll know me by my cool new pants.

Glade Festival is another renowned England music festival. I have a lot of friends going, including some special people from North America. I'm very much looking forwards to seeing my European community and North American community overlap.

...Note that I will only be there if I can afford to fly to Europe and buy a ticket. You're welcome to sponsor me.

Everybody tells me that this is the most chilled-out, enjoyable, don't-miss juggling convention around, and all my favourite twirlers go. It's ten days long. Drew told me that the first year he went he was just checking it out for the afternoon, and didn't leave for eight days... or soemthing like that.

Anyway, I'll be there unless I get some kind of can't-refuse offer. I won't be doing any official workshops or anything, thank goodness, but I'll be playing with everybody and we'll get a lot of poi inspiration going.

No website for this one, as far as I can tell.

Near Stockholm, Sweden

Another weekend of poi and fire related performances, workshops, and festivities. I'll be teaching workshops at this one as well. I hear there is quite a poi and twirling community in Sweden, should be very interesting.

Yes, it's true: I've been invited to perform and teach at the European Juggling Convention! July 9th-15th. This is the world's biggest and most recognized juggling event. 4-5,000 people go each year, and it is held in a different country each time. Come if you can. If you can't I will be there with other playpoi representitives to bring it to you :)
