#juggLINCOLNvention2014
loads of exciting things at juggLINCOLNvention this year including over 25 workshops, pub quiz, renegade, unicycle trials, slack line park and not forgetting amazing gala show.
announced acts
Tom Grinyer - Tom has been doing circus arts for many years, training with Circusoc and Surcas, he has been doing poi for around 5 years and showed a natural aptitude for the skill, is also highly proficient in staff and contact staff. He has performed in many circus shows, including Melbourne Spinfest, Circusoc presents: Chromatic! and Objectify. Tom has also taught at spinning and manipulation festivals across the globe including FLAME Festival and spinfest.
Ed Cliffe - Ed is a graduate of the purple mermaid circus society. Ed routine is not only original but its mesmerizing with his unique act combining contact jugging and cigar boxes. Ed has undoubtedly come onto the convention circuit with a bang gaining a well deserved standing ovation at the British juggling convention open stage.
Simon scouting and Emily Rose (fulcrum circus) - fulcrum circus perform 'giving up on you', the story of a pair realising it's time to let go, but can they?
Emily Rose - aerial hoop routine mixed with dance and acrobatics making its first appearance at juggLINCOLNvention.
Frederike Gerstner- has been juggling for over a decade she graduated from the Circus Space in 2006. Since graduating she has created her own shows that have been performed in London and performed around the convention circuit. previously Frederike has worked with the Gandinis and feeding the fish Frederike not only has outstanding technical ability but she also brings a elegance and feminine flare to club juggling. Frederike will be performing her club solo routine to 2 solo piano pieces written by Chris Sly
Jorgelina Vazquez - A firm favourite on the convention scene last year. Jorgelina brings a club swinging routine with a definite feminine flare. With a brand new routine its surely not one to be missed
Matthew Greeny - a graduate off the National Centre for Circus Arts. he has over 6 years of performance experience with a unique take on circus. Mathew combines different varieties of juggling, dance, acrobatics to create a new and cutting edge performance.
more acts will be announced soon

JuggLINCOLNvent1on - have at it!!
I want to know what happened, and how miraculous the weather was.
It was great. The setting reminded me a bit of Play, set around what I think was an old farmhouse, with nothing but fields as far as the eye can see around it (well, fields and hulking great pylons, but you can't have everything). I've no idea how many people actually attended, but it seemed like a good number and there's definitely scope for it to grow, as I hope it will. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, and there was a good mix of people, newcomers as well as familiar faces. A nice friendly bunch all in all.
A slight downside is that it's a bit out of the way, and I mentioned to Kev or Anna that a minibus to and from the train station next year would probably be helpful.
It might be a bit disingenuous for me to comment on the show since I was in it, and I knew many of the other performers, but I thought it was a good mix, and the setting was particularly unique, on a stage out in the woods.
Definitely a convention to watch out for.
Indeed. The awkwardness of getting to the site by public transport was a major factor in me not attending. General lack of details about how to get to the site from different train stations [which stations were best for having taxis etc] at the time when I would have been booking train tickets (a few months before the convention - before the tickets became extortionately expensive) is something that could be addressed in future!
Yes transport is something that we are looking into just couldn't really afford it this year so was done with lift shares but will deff have more details on transport and other local ammenities next convention so hope to see u next year xx
There is a review of JuggLINCOLNvention on the Firetoys website

#jugglincolnvention
Hey, #juggLINCOLNvention orgs! Perhaps your facebook page answers these questions, but it seems not to be publicly accessible (rookie mistake), so I have to ask here:
Is there a gym? Or a big top? What other facilities? Thanks, Void.
I don't know if Anna is a regular viewer on this forum, but there is not a huge amount on the facebook group or event pages yet.
My impression is that it is slightly more of a camping weekend of a juggling convention than an intense juggling in a gym for 6 hours and watch a show type convention.
To quote AnnajuggLINCOLNvention is no longer an idea its actually happening from the 5th till the 7th of July. That's right folks this is not just a one day convention we have Friday and Saturday camping to. all for the astounding price of just
- but if you pre-reg with them at a convention it will save them credit card fees
£15.00 adults
£10 under 16
But wait! if you book before the 30th June. Tickets can be purchased for as little as
£12 adults
£8 under 16
and for those bringing the kids, under 8 are free so get your early bird tickets from lazy juggler
andwe have lots of exciting plans in the pipeline. that are coming together
facilities that are available on site are
marquee
barn with stocked bar
toilets
showers
catering on site
The fact they were looking for performers indicates there will be a show
There are photos of some of the buildings on the site on the facebook group page (which are viewable to non-facebook users) but I can only link to individual photos like https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10200568789535825&set=p.10200568789535825&type=3&theater not the whole album.
I imagine the JuggLINCOLNvention organisers will be at Lestival in a couple of weeks or Bungay and will be able to answer your questions if they don't post on here first.
Thanks Miark and Orin. I can see those facebook pages now. (Either they've been made public or the fb link on the Edge event has changed.). This would appear to be the link to the album Miark mentions:
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10200140980200859.181098.1641490539&type=1
Looks nice, and sounds nice. I still don't know for sure if I'll be going, but I now have a slightly better idea of what to expect if I do. Ta. (I suggest that anyone with powers to do so adds the "facilities list" to the Edge event.)

I have messaged the JuggLINCOLNvention people, by the medium of facebook, and hopefully they will be able to respond on this forum or fix the facebook event page (and maybe add details to their Edge listing).
I am wondering if faecesbook has changed the public settings on their pages again, because the Chocfest facebook event was definitely viewable to non-facebook users and now isn't. I noticed the BJC 2013 facebook event page isn't viewable to non-facebook users either.
Worse is that their Facebook page appears to be incorrect (correct links below). I couldn't find the answer to your questions though.
Event listing:
https://www.facebook.com/events/480556732005922/
Group page:
https://www.facebook.com/events/list#!/groups/juggLincolnVention/?fref=ts
Yes they changed their original facebook event page to a new event page because facebook wouldn't let the old event page be associated with their group page - so check you have the link to the new page that Orinoco just quoted.
i wonder when people will finally realise that facebook is a pain in the arse for a lot of people.
get a website! many people dont use facebook, many more if they log in from work will find facebook blocked.

I think facebook still has a long way to go before it implodes in the general conciousness...
my biggest concern is though - what monstrosity is going to replace it?
The actual internet is now insufficiently appliance-like for modern sensibilities. We need someone to invent the JUGGLEFACESQUASH app which automatically notifies you when it's time to go to a convention, tells you what not to forget and then starts up the satnav.
as one of those clever people who do magic stuff with lines of code.
did you just volunteer Emily?
lol, I don't need to; it already exists. It's called a "calendar" and you just subscribe to a calendar feed for the events you want...
Cedric Lackpot - - Parent #
Calendar? What sorcery is this?!? Burn the witch!!
A good calendar feed might tell you when, what, and where you can you can go to, but mine won't synchronise with my sat-nav telling me when I might want to set off, it won't check the weather for me to tell me what I might want to take (snowshoes or parasol) it won't check who else is going so I can lift-share and share fuel.
There might be scope for someone to create an amusing or useful app, but I don't think it will make them millionaires.
My calendar app will nag me to set off for things on my calendar; it even takes the traffic into account.
Lift-sharing (as well as weather detection) would be an awesome edge feature. Like "I'm going to this event from X location with Y spaces in my car".
I'm going to Lestival from North West London with 1-3 spaces in my car. Setting off "when I wake up".
Not sure I can do the weather detection though.
Cedric Lackpot - - Parent #
What's that you say? Lestival? Pray, tell me more ....
Well I did Google it but the Leicester Jugglers website was advertising 2012 so not sure how helpful that would be. Perhaps you know of a better link...?
They have a facebook page at www.facebook.com/events/245002562295665 for those who have facebook accounts and are not blocked from facebook
Dave did promise he is "on it" regarding updating the www.juggler.net/lestival site
maybe add the #LestivalLeicester tag to this thread
Little Paul - - Parent #
is https://allevents.in/Leicester/Lestival-VI-The-Leicester-Circus-Festival/245002562295665 any use? (found by googling for lestival 2013)
That is just data harvested from the Lestival facebook page, there is just as much information on the Juggling Edge Lestival page www.jugglingedge.com/event.php?EventID=2865 (but with less adverts and pop-ups).
