where: Belleville parc, Paris center, Metro (tube): Belleville, Pyrénnées, or Couronnes

flyer: https://maniballe.net/FICHIERS/BHB2006rvb.jpg

(phat file !!)





I've met a lot of HoP-ers through the past few years, and everyone allways said that they'll have to come to Paris one day !!

Therefore, this is The Right Opportunity for you spinners to invade sunny Paris sunny welcome ubbrollsmile



I'm a member of Paris juggling association: "les ballapapass " which has been organizing "Balles Habilles à Belleville" (the convention) for the past 9 years.

This year we have the opportunnity to make the night-shows & open-stage in a very close artistic-squat ("La Générale"), where we'll be able to provide everyone with a nightime place to juggle & to accomodate everyone for FREE (so bring your own sleeping-bag)

As every year we'll have lawns to juggle, an amphitheatre for shows, sunny & warm weather warrantied by MeteoFrance (35°C & no rain for the past 8 years), and loads of French girls !!! ubblove ubbloco biggrin ubbrollsmile



Here's a glimpse of the current program:

==> daytime juggling, circus & street-art shows:

- this year, as our main international headline, we are proud to announce:

" Rubber Heart Duo ", staves spinning & juggling show bounce

- "Liugi & Gino", socially-involved juggling show

- "Xavier", automate/robotic show

- "Pich", contact-juggling show

& a lot more shows to be announced (we're still in the selection process)

==> concerts:

- "Balbazar" orchestra

- "Par la gauche"

& a lot more gigs to be announced soon

==> indoor night shows (to be announced soon)

==> all-night-long open-stage & renegade

==> juggling olympics

==> free breakfast

==> workshops

==> make-up & hair-undressing stands

==> Tale-teller brigade & magic close-up

& more





I've already got some confirmation from some of the best German & Irish spinners coming, so book your flight/eurostar/thalys tickets early, as the prices are still dead cheap & this convention 's gonna be HEAVY

Looking forward to see you spin / juggle / chill / sunbath / do the open-stage in Paris cool weavesmiley juggle beerchug ubbloco peace

Olive



ps> let me know if anyone wanna come longer (extended week-end option) as I can organize some extra accomodation through the Paris firespinning community !!!

Unfortunately It coincides with the Dutch juggling festival. Wich I need to attend to lobby for another juggling fest that I'm organising. So i'll probably can't come.

How is this being done for free? I ask because things that sound too good to be true often are!

Right
I'm in montpellier at this time but will have just finished a spot a French schooling anmd although theoretically I will still be staying with my host family, I don't think they'll mind if I leave a day early. have also found that going by plane will be cheaper and quicker than the train eek so might just have to invest in some tickets biggrin
Didn't think I was going to be available for this when I first heard about it so feeling pretty good now bounce
