T&Cs

We know this may seem a little dull and boring, but it's really really important that we all make an agreement on this...before we try something dangerous...let's do it as safely as possible and take every caution to avoid injury or upset. In buying a ticket and attending the event the T&Cs are accepted so please take the time to read these carefully.

It's all important stuff and Section 7 is especially important as an accident waiver and release for use of pictures and video for the usual promotion type activities.

If you have any questions please email us, we're a friendly bunch, info@worldjugglingday.uk or just call on 07961 288 025....here we go.....
