DrumatiX: Rhythm, Redefined!
Trash cans become drums and tap shoes become instruments in this high-energy family concert under the sky at The Ford.


General Info
Oct 25, 2026, 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
The Ford, 2580 Cahuenga Blvd. East, Los Angeles, CA 90068, USA
Description
DrumatiX takes the stage at The Ford as part of the LA Soundscapes Family Concerts series, bringing a wildly creative show where recycled and found objects turn into instruments. Buckets, cans and everyday odds and ends become a full rhythm section, and the performers layer in tap dance, body percussion, drumming and plenty of comedy.
Beyond the beats, the show carries a playful message about sustainability and creativity, showing kids that something new and exciting can come from things most people would toss away. It is an interactive performance, so young audience members get to clap, move and join in rather than just watch.
The morning starts early with hands-on art-making and interactive activities created with LA Commons, and sensory-friendly activities are part of the LA Soundscapes series. The performance follows at 11:30 a.m. The Ford is an outdoor amphitheater, so sunscreen and sun hats are a must. Families can bring a picnic, and kids 12 and under can get free tickets with a full-priced purchase.
