🌐 FEATURED FESTIVAL OF THE WEEK
📍 Mediterranean Acro Convention | Malta | Oct 7–11, 2026
If you’ve ever wanted to combine a proper acro training week with an actual vacation…this is that.
Five days in Malta at a 4-star resort, with 40+ workshops and a teacher lineup that pulls big names from across the global scene. People who went last year rated it insanely high across the board.
You’re basically getting:
solid training all day
beach + sunset sessions
full resort living (all meals & rooms built in)
and a very international crowd
🔥 Early Bird is almost gone — only a few spots left 🔥
And I’ve got you a little extra:

🧳 TRAVEL ESSENTIALS — What I Actually Use
I get asked a lot what I pack, book, and use on the road. Here’s the shortlist all tested over years going around the globe.
Booking.com – My default for hotels and guesthouses worldwide.
Agoda – Especially good for Asia deals.
Discovercars.com – Best rental car aggregator.
Skyscanner – Still the fastest way I find cheap multi-leg flights.
Travel Insurance via SafetyWing – Month-to-month coverage for when plans change last-minute.
✈️ Want help planning a bigger trip?
I also offer custom itinerary planning, if you’re planning something epic, but don’t want the logistical overwhelm.
Some links are affiliate — they help keep Acro Insiders running at no extra cost to you.
If this issue helped you spot an event or think a step ahead, feel free to share it with your acro buddies — that’s how this list finds the right people.

Next week: Related Fests where acro spills into circus, flow, dance, and movement culture.
Until then, fly elegantly and land somewhere gracefully (mostly) gracefully.
