Cascade Juggling Festival 2026

The third annual Cascade Juggling Festival is returning to Bellingham! Come juggle, spin, and flow your way to our gathering of prop-manipulating circus artists from the Salish Sea and beyond. 

Free, all-levels, all-ages workshops are offered throughout the weekend with balls, clubs, rings, hoops, poi, staff, and other props, as well as related art forms like flexibility, dance, and performing. 

For spectators, Friday night hosts a glow jam with DJs and a risqué Renegade Show; an invitational revue will feature top-notch talent on Saturday evening in a not-to-be-missed Gala Show; on Sunday, the jugglers' games feature public contests of one-upsmanship.

        We acknowledge that Whatcom County is located on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples. They cared for the lands that included what we’d call the Puget Sound region, Vancouver Island and British Columbia since time immemorial. This gives us the great obligation and opportunity to learn how to care for our surrounding areas and all the natural and human resources we require to live. We express our deepest respect and gratitude for our indigenous neighbors, the Lummi Nation and Nooksack Tribe, for their enduring care and protection of our shared lands and waterways.
