There will be juggling workshops, great performances, competitions, games, and lots of people to juggle and share ideas with for six days. The schedule details will be posted here as they become available.

Reno and Lake Tahoe

Reno is a well-known gateway to nonstop fun and entertainment for all ages. Most of Nevada's Reno/Tahoe Territory is located on the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. Rand McNally has rated the area "#1 in Outdoor Fun." Reno/Lake Tahoe offers more recreational possibilities than you can imagine within an hour's drive. It has beautiful hiking trails, a river running through downtown, and the most gorgeous fresh water lake in the world.

56th Annual IJA Festival

The festival headquarters will be at Circus Circus Hotel and the City Center Pavilion. Workshops will be held at Circus Circus and juggling will be a block away in the City Center Pavilion. The City Center Pavilion has 39,891 sq. ft. of floor space with ceiling height of 25-27 ft. maximum (20 ft. to the lights).

Circus Circus special features: free live world-class circus acts, midway carnival games, arcade video games, five retail stores, six restaurants, free skyway shuttles, self-parking garage, valet parking, and airport shuttle. Check out www.circusreno.com.
