On February 21st at 10:00 AM MST, registration officially opens for the 2026 Utah Taiko Experience! www.utaiko.com/ute This year, we’re doing things differently. Our mission has always been about building a global taiko community and making world-class instruction accessible to everyone. To prove it, we’ve working hard to secure sponsorships that will allow us to offer an Early Bird All-Inclusive package for just $1350 for 10 days! For 10 days, your $1350 covers: ✨ Full Event Registration ✨ On-site Lodge Accommodation (Early Bird Special!) ✨ 3 Meals a Day ✨ Airport Shuttles & Local Event Transportation Why is the price so low? Because UTE isn't about making a profit—it’s about people. We believe every taiko player should have the chance to drum in the mountains and connect with the community without a massive financial barrier. By subsidizing these costs through anticipated sponsorships and grants, we’re taking the leap to ensure this experience is accessible to more players than ever before!! The Catch: The "Free Housing" gift at the Palisade Taiko Lodge is limited to the first 20 registrants. When they're gone, they're gone! Set your alarms. Let's make some noise in Centrtal Utah this Summer!

Hachijo Improvisation - performed by Yuta Kato & Martin Doyle At the Utah Taiko Experience, one of our favorite things is getting to share taiko with the local community. One of the ways we do this is through an information night called 'Get To Know Taiko' where we talk about the art form and perform a few pieces. The evening culminates in a workshop for the audience to come on stage and have the experience of playing the taiko themselves! This video features Yuta Kato soloing and singing in the Hachijo style. Enjoy!
