Flic Flac PUNXXX

Its been four years since the last time I saw a show of circus Flic Flac and I was really excited to see the new show PUNXXX. The motto was – as the name of the show suggests – punk rock and most costumes and music was selected accordingly.

As usual for Flic Flac non of the acts involved animals. It was all about acrobatics, juggling, slapstick and stunts.

Carnival of Cultures 2019

This year’s motto of the 23th Carnival der Kulturen in Bielefeld was Atmosfail – for an environmentally sustainable and fair atmosphere. So beside the beautiful costumes – particularity the stilt walkers were really amazing – there were lots of political statements.

Betty

During last year’s EJC I discovered that my tent neighbor Betty was actually a pretty awesome hoop player. She had three very nice LED hoops and happily she agreed on taking a few photos of here playing at night.
So here are some shots from beside the EJC’s fireplace.

Inferno

Although this picture might look a little dramatic I can tell you that every thing was fine as it was taken on the traditional Easter fire.

EJC 2016

The European Juggling Convention (EJC) is the biggest jugging event in the world. It started quite small with 11 people back in 1978 in Brighton, England and grew up over the years (the biggest EJC was in München, Germany with about 7200 participants).
This summer the EJC 2016 took place in Almere, Netherlands and it was the first time I joined in. I was pretty much excited about all those friendly, beautiful people from all across Europe with these awesome juggling skills from club juggling over hula hoop playing to stilt walking (or even playing soccer on stilts). Here is a small excerpt from the tons of photos I took.
