DRUM CON - A CONVENTION FOR ALL 2026

Welcome to the 3rd annual DRUM CON!

This convention is open to all who drum, want to drum, are interested in drumming, have been drumming for eons and more. All drum styles and drums types are welcome.

Inspired by the magic that happens when people come together to drum, Melonie was drawn to bring people together all in the name of drumming! This happened with a Women's convention in 2023 and was the most magical day. People asked for more and a mixed convention was always on the cards, and so, this convention was born!

DRUM CON 2024 was a hit, Drum Con 2025 topped that and now we are looking at Drum Con 2026!

You can expect:

A programme of talks, performances and workshops to get your inner beat moving (all included in the ticket price)
Stalls sharing their wares (at the beginning and end, in-between talks and workshops and during breaks)
2 Kitchens selling food and drinks for lunch and snacks
Music
An attendance of likeminded people all into or interested in drumming
A raffle with awesome prizes!!

An additional late night add on - donations invited
and More!
The programme will be announced nearer the time.

Your ticket cost entitles you to entry and access to all talks and workshops. You'll make a choice using the programme which will be sent out nearer the time as to which you wish to attend. The raffle and kitchens incur additional costs.

There is a large car park at the venue and it is 10 mins walk from Marks Tey train station which has direct links to and from London, Colchester and more. Lots of people came and stayed over nearby so if you need help just email and we can put a call out.

Looking forwards to joining you for a drum filled DRUM CON 2026!
