For Jugglers, By Jugglers
The European Juggling Association (EJA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering community and supporting the art of juggling and contemporary circus across Europe. Through collaboration, volunteer spirit, and professional support, it empowers local communities to bring the annual European Juggling Convention (EJC) to life in cities across the continent.

For an unforgettable week, thousands of participants come together to share skills, watch incredible shows, and celebrate the art of juggling and circus in a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere.
