Spinning Weekends/Festivals Directory

i think this is the start of something pretty good, maybe if you could add dates and place could be better, it save having to sift through threads or the calendar...

sorry, i know its easy to ask and hard to do

Maybe this is a bit early days yet but is there anything happening in august in the uk? Work have TOLD me thats when I'm taking my holidays so before I rol over and accept it just want to make sure that it s not gonna be the most boring month of the year.

I tried google but its just swamping me with things about leeds/reading (i'd love to go £145 a pop? Ouch) and loads of welsh and folk festivals. They look ok but not quite the fun filled summer i was hoping for.

Hello fellow spinners,
I'm new here, so probably haven't been able to navigate in the right direction for the info I'm looking for but I really hope someone can help me or point me in the right direction ....
I was in Goa at the new year this year and just as i booked my train ticket out of Goa, someone told me about the Juggling Convention, which i totally missed out on because I had no idea it was on!
So I really don't want to miss out on anything like that.. ever again!
So please could someone tell me if this is going to take place again in India next year or anytime at all?
And for that matter, is anything like this going to take place anywhere around Asia (especially Thailand), as I'm going to be around for a while in Asia, mostly Thailand and India, then Laos and Cambodia for a while now, and really need some new spinning input!
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you

also in the USA: mid-Atlantic area, there is Playa del Fuego (kinda like a mini Burning Man) in Delaware, 2x a year around memorial day weekend, and Columbus day weekend
