Places to Know
The Campsite
Included with an EJC ticket is a spot on the campground called “Panorama”. These are large fields on which you can camp with a tent. Panorama is located in the heart of Ptuj’s old town, just below the castle, and it truly is a fairytale settig for camping. As it is a protected area, we will need to take special care of it. There will be seperate spots for people wanting to sleep in camper vans, RVs or cars. For this, you need an additional camper ticket of 35,- euros. It is not allowed to sleep in a car on the parking spot.
Additionally, there will be a separate space on the campground for families as well as a separate space for people participating in the EYCC.
The campsite has several facilities. There will be toilets and showers. These will also be available in the main halls. Additionally, there will be water points and cooking corners. Cooking between the tents is not allowed.
Note: There is no electricity available on the campground.
Between the campsite and the main halls, take a delightful 10–15 minute walk through the picturesque streets of Ptuj. Stroll past the riverside park along the Drava River, enjoy the historic town center, and breathe in the relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Every corner offers something to see or smell – from cozy cafés to colorful street scenes – making the walk feel like a mini adventure rather than just a way to get to the halls.
By the time you arrive, you’ll already feel a part of the festival, energized and ready to jump into workshops, shows, and all the fun waiting for you.
Cooking area
There will be multiple cooking areas available on the campsite where you can prepare your own meals. These spaces are equipped with water taps and dishwashing stations, so you can cook and clean up easily. Please note: there is no electricity available in the cooking areas.
Each cooking area will have space to place your camping stove and prepare food safely. There will also be benches and tables, so you can sit down comfortably to enjoy your meal with friends or other festival guests.
Cooking is only allowed in these designated areas (not between tents) and only with small portable gas canisters (like Campingaz). We recommend using canisters with a screw or valve connection, as these are safer to use. The organization may carry out checks to ensure safety.
Cooking inside vehicles (like vans or campers) with loose gas cylinders is not allowed due to fire safety regulations. Only fixed, built-in gas systems that meet inspection standards (such as an MOT or G607 certificate) are permitted.

Festival Areas
24h Hall, Day Hall, Acro/Aerial Hall, and Kids Hall
In these halls, everyone is free to practice their own discipline, join workshops, or simply hang out and relax.
Acro/Aerial Space
In addition to the juggling halls, a separate hall for acrobatics and aerial arts will also be set up! Mats will be laid out on the floor so you can train safely and effectively. The hall covers approximately 575 m², which is large enough for quality practice. The Acro/Aerial hall has 20 rigging points for aerial equipment. Various advanced workshops for silks, rope, and Chinese pole will take place in this Hall. The hall will be closed at night. The final number of apparatuses will be announced once the detailed plan is completed. Don’t worry – there will be plenty of space and equipment for everyone.

Get ready for sparks and talent at the Fire Space! During the day, this will be the Flow Space, where you can relax, have fun, and enjoy the music. If weather permits, you will be able to use and train with fire in the evenings. The location is perfect and naturally invites evening fire spinning. Additionally, there will be an open stage for fire acts, a Fire Renegade, a children’s open stage, and group performances… Don’t miss out! Note: We cannot guarantee to what extent fire activities will be possible, as this depends on weather conditions and fire hazards. Regulations will be communicated day by day.
