Every year we invite special guest artists to perform, teach workshops and conduct master classes. Among our guests in the past were some of the best jugglers in the world today. The full list can be found here. This year we are once again focusing on an outstanding line-up of jugglers. These leading-edge artists will conduct numerous gratuitous master classes to convention attendees, and will also perform in the International show and the Pol&Freddy. Both are full length shows at extremely cheap prices for jugglers, presented in a professional theatre located within five minutes walking distance from the convention site. Here is a brief description of our guests this year:
Pol & Freddy present: "Ready!" Funky juggling and foolish ingeniousness (or two idiots and their toys). An incredible strong circusperformance on the importance of friendly hostilities, childish amazement and relativising humor.
