"hoscha a fuer ?" - fireplayergathering in the west of austria -

Hey folks, freaky fire people, jugglers and what else is freaking around out there! weavesmiley

I have to make a huge and extremely important announcement! Over the last 3 years, many fiery meetings have taken place in Austria: from the legendary FEUERFEST in Graz to the FIREDANCE Festival in Upper Austria. Now WE would like to carry on this whole thing and bring it to the western part of our beautiful country. biggrin

This is an invitation to the “Hosch a Für? Convention” (West Austrian for “Have you got a lighter?”) on the Jagdberg Ruin in Schlins/Vorarlberg (in Western Austria, almost in Switzerland, but unfortunately not quite there wink

) from JULY 24 – 30, 2006.

Who are we?
WE are called TIRASARU (some of you may already know us from other Fire Festivals or the EJC) and are a group of six fire dancers from Innsbruck/Tyrol/Austria. If you want to know more about us: check us out on www.tirasaru.tk !

What’s the idea behind it?
The initial idea behind all this was our decision to organize the annual Open Air on the Jagdberg Ruin. The idea of a Fire Convention had been around for some time, and in combination with an Open Air Festival this seemed just perfect. La voilà! One week of fire freak-out with a two day Open Air Festival as culmination so to speak!!!

The programme
We have already come up with many good ideas for the festival. But just come and see for yourself – as we don’t want to tell you too much yet wink

! On the plan are, though, many different workshops, an Experimental Day, an Open Stage, as well as a Big Final Performance as the highlight of the Open Air on Saturday evening.
And if any of you are jam-packed with ideas, just feel free to introduce them and also to take over their organization. We are also open to and grateful for any other offers of support wink

The Open Air
Two day Open Air Festival on 3 floors, with 12 bands that really rock, phat DJs, After Party, Mexican Bar etc. More on www.jagdberg.at .

The Ruin
Very beautiful, picturesque surrounding with ancient inspiring walls and a lot of space under shady trees. If you want to see some photos, soon online on www.jagdberg.at .

What do we offer?
The most important of all: a gorgeous and inspiring location to PLAY FIRE, to have a good time together, to exchange experiences, to practise, with space to try something new, to party, laugh and live, dance, sing …
A wonderful camping site under the trees in front of the old walls of the ruin, a gym as alternative in case of bad weather, washing facilities and toilets, a small lake not too far off, the opportunity of preparing a “wicked show” together that will be presented as highlight of the Open Air Festival on Saturday evening, free entry to the Open Air for all participants of the Convention, some sort of “Volxküche” to stuff oneself with food at fair prices (maybe also a breakfast buffet) and free lamp oil for training, free freak-out and the shows.

Enrolment
In order to organize the whole action more easily and to be able to offer you the best “comfort” possible wink

, we are asking for binding enrolments.
So please send a short e-mail to tirasaru@gmx.at !
Your e-mail should contain the following information:
Name of the group (and home page if possible), what you do, number and names of the artists!

Please make your decision soon, as the turnout must unfortunately be restricted due to the site.

Hope to see ya !!! biggrin

Keep the fire burning!
Fiery hugs grouphug
