What's JJF?
Japan Juggling Festival (JJF) is the largest juggling convention in Japan organized by Japan Juggling Association.
JJF is an annual festival exclusively for jugglers, organized by jugglers. It brings together juggling enthusiasts of all levels - from beginners to amateurs and professionals - in one place to enjoy juggling as an art, sport, and recreational activity from various angles.
