Mark your calendars for June 3rd and 4th and join us for Pyroborea, flow arts gathering, located just outside the town of Sundre, Alberta! This event is perfect for anyone who loves to spin, dance, and learn with props like hula hoops, poi, staff and other flow toys. During the day, we'll have workshops led by expert instructors where you can learn new moves and techniques to take your skills to the next level.
As night falls, get ready for the main event: an all-night prop jam! Watch in awe as performers light up the night. Join in the fun and spin your own props in a safe and supportive environment. There will be opportunities for people of all skill levels to spin. Please BYOP (bring your own props).
This is a camping event, so be sure to bring your own tent, along with enough food and water to sustain you throughout the weekend. There will be some room for RV parking. We're committed to leaving no trace, so please pack out all your trash and belongings. Porta potties will be available on site. Radical self reliance is what's keeping this festival so affordable!
Located in the stunning natural landscape of Alberta, this festival is a must-attend event for anyone who loves the thrill of movement and creativity. Don't miss out on the chance to connect with like-minded individuals and experience the magic flow on June 3rd and 4th!
