European Juggling Convention

The European Juggling Convention (EJC) is the biggest event for jugglers in the world. Every year, it attracts thousands of people who all come together to share their passion for this sport and to connect with each other. As the name suggests, a big focus of the convention lies on the art of juggling. However, the convention is about a lot more than just that. There will also be more than enough space for unicyclists, aerialists, magicians, hula-hoopers, fire spinners, acrobats of all sorts, musicians, or simply people who enjoy the circus atmosphere… Everyone is welcome! Even for anyone who has never been in contact with juggling or other circus disciplines, there will be lots of opportunities to try out new things and get to know this amazing world!

Throughout the convention, people can practice their own disciplines, as well as participate in workshops of all disciplines and skills. This is the perfect opportunity to learn new tricks while sharing your own and connecting with others. On top of that, everyday, there are shows that will surprise the audience with performances connected to any circus discipline. Anyone visiting the convention can watch these amazing performances varying from professional acts to breathtaking fire shows, open stages, street shows, or renegades… At the end of the convention, everyone can look forward to the final gala show in which the best circus artists will show off their skills. As part of the convention, a ticket includes a spot on one of the several large camping fields. Additionally, one can choose the option to pay a little extra for a nice hotel room based on site. This way, we make sure that everyone has a place to calm down from a day filled with juggling and new impressions.

The European juggling convention is a place where people come together to connect, to make new friends, meet old ones, share skills and stories, watch shows, and overall just have an amazing time. But most importantly, the EJC is an event created by jugglers, for jugglers with the goal of sharing our passion and creating a space where everyone feels welcome. Truly, the EJC is an event that we build together as a community.

Come by, and you’ll see… You + me = WEJC!
