[edit] BJC History
The first British Juggling Convention was a two day convention in London in 1988. Since then it has moved around the UK to a different location each year, run by a different organising team, reaching a high of over 2000 attendees in Coventry in 1992.
More historical facts and figures, as well as a map of locations, can be found on the BJC History page. If you've got more BJC information, stories or anecdotes, please feel free to add them!
