Come meet and play with other Orange County hand drummers and percussionists at area drum circles, drum events, and workshops. The majority of events are no cost community drum circles, but we do offer some events, classes, and workshops at low cost.   

We feature hand drumming for drum circles, music and fun, health & wellness, the environment, spirituality, and fundraisers. We welcome all types of hand drumming, plus drum circle enthusiasts who share in the joy of drumming.

We ask that you submit a recognizable PHOTO of yourself and write an INTRODUCTION as to why you would like to join the Orange County Drum Circle (OCDC). Once this is received, you will then be approved and your membership activated.   

Meetup rules prohibit the selling of products and services on the Meetup board, and for charging fees for events and instruction without first obtaining permission from the organizer. OCDC sponsorship arrangements are available for those interested in doing business thru the Meetup.

 

Many of our events are at public beaches and venues, and we ask members to pay attention to all local, state, and federal laws in regards to alcohol and drug use at these venues.

 

We are very open to bringing drumming to other area Meetups, events, and fundraisers. If you know of an event or organization who would like to include drumming at one of their events, please contact me or a member of the organizer team.

 

Some of our members are also professional percussionists and musicians, and may see them on the board and at area events.

Truly,

Stephen Dolle, Organizer

    "There aren't any conflicting events on calendar at pier plaza today. I'll try and show up to drum. If you know of a trumpet player who'd like to come by, please pass the word. It'll elevate the play."

    "Hi, I'm new to the area, looking to join a drum circle locally since the San Diego drum circle I have been with is only once a month. It would be nice to do some drumming, make a few friends, and I could help out with set-up, etc."

    "I've beem drumming for about 2 years at various locations. I have left each circle touched in a different way, they seem to know what I "need" at the time. I feel that drumming is such a gift on so many levels. Always look forward to a circle!"
