What is
Drum Fantasy Camp?
Drum Fantasy Camp is five days of intimate classes, nightly jams, and an incredible concert with four of the world’s greatest drummers and a world-class band! Drummers of all ages and playing levels come from all over the world every August!
Some of our attendees are on a path to music school. Others have desk jobs or are gigging drummers in their hometowns. And...some are simply looking for the inspiration to pick up the sticks after a long hiatus. All are welcome! We group our attendees based on your general playing level.
The camp happens in early August and registration typically opens in early January.
