An Austin tradition since 1994, the annual Jugglefest is a three day celebration of juggling and jugglers. There's also a unicycling component to the event.
The festival is a working festival, and a laid back, informal one at that, with plenty of emphasis on workshops, contests, and games. Beginning in 2012, Jugglefest is now hosted at the Texas School for the Deaf on South Congress AVE.
