Tricks are the treats at October Edge
No Halloween sugar rush can beat the buzz of fly catches, somersaults, and aerial spins and drops. At October Edge, the tricks ARE the treats!
Like the popular Easter Edge, the October edition is a chance for the Aerial Edge community to gather, welcome new friends, and spend a weekend doing what we love most.
It’s the same Edge format that you know and love: four workshops each day, in the arts you choose. That consistency over the three days is what makes the magic happen. You’ll feel your progress session by session as the skills click into place.
And because this is Aerial Edge, we make sure it’s the best possible value too: £200 for the full three days, with world-class teachers to inspire you.
Whether you’ve trained with us for years or this is your very first Edge, you’ll leave with new skills, new friends, and memories that stick.
Spaces are limited – come join the fun and book your October Edge ticket here.
Check the schedule to figure out which arts you want to choose. Booking for the tracks will open two weeks before the festival.
