The Wednesday night fire meet at Edinburgh Gardens, Fitzroy (Melbourne) has been a focal point of Melbourne's fire scene since Tjoni began it in December, 2001.

Now it is the largest regular gathering of firetwirlers in the state, with drumming, picnicers and many smiles accompanying the fire.

Weekly fire madness

Starting from about 8:00pm every wednesday of the year, (Some like to arrive earlier - you know who you are, Flynt!) Edinburgh gardens fireness really is the weekly highlight for alot of folks.
Total fire bans and winter rain are no obstacle to the pyromania!! We'll twirl when it's wet, and spin glow and electroglo toys when fire is prohibited! so there!

Glowing Inferno

As is sometimes the case during the summer, A total fire ban advisory falls upon a wednesday. To satisfy the lust for twirling until midnight/Thursday morning, we break out the Glow and Electroglo twirling toys. Below are some examples of electroglo poi and staff. The image in middle left me as sweaty and out of breath as a daschound chasing it's own tail. woof(!).

Vindaloo is dangerous!

Fire twirling is not the only release of pyromania available!

Some releases smell more than others, as these images can show you.

Further proof indeed that you shouldn't firetwirl after a big curry!
