Brochure 18th edition!

First Meeting!

Bondy is hosting the first edition of the Coeur battant du festival Rencontre des jonglages, which is also celebrating its 18th anniversary in the Paris region.

From April 30 to May 24, cultural venues, associations, schools and towns in the Paris region join forces to present juggling and object manipulation in surprising and unexpected forms.

In Bondy, from May 13 to 18, several of the town’s venues will be buzzing with activity as part of this first edition, reinvented for the occasion: the Salle Malraux, the Auditorium, the Charles de Gaulle and November 11 squares, the Ferme Caillard and the Maisons de quartier Balavoine and Brassens.

La Maison des Jonglages offers 16 shows, both indoors and out, as well as workshops for young and old, food and drink, and live music. A first encounter with artists who will surprise you with their juggling skills, including live rap, sheets, coal, peacock feathers, keys, an orange, apnea juggling in an aquarium and even objectless juggling!

Based on this program, we’re going to work together to create a real Bondy festival!

For the past two years, we’ve been talking to many Bondynois and Bondynoises who are energizing their territories with rich and diverse actions. Associations, community centers, colleges, schools, crèches, youth centers, with whom we have already built projects for the year 2025. The festival is also an opportunity to cross paths, experience shared emotions and plan actions together for the years to come. In a global context of economic, political and social crisis, culture has recently become the target of all kinds of criticism, often contradictory. However, culture is about preserving and enriching the way we live together, like a cement that strengthens the edifice.

By strengthening what binds us together, brick by brick, we are more serene in the face of existing and future tensions, and more confident collectively in the face of an accelerating and unstable world.

We can’t wait to share our passion with you, and look forward to meeting you or seeing you again!
