Dojo Live returns in 2026 with 3-concert series
Author: ICle
Date: Thu 30 Jul 2026
Following the incredible response to last year’s Dojo Live series, we’re excited to share that we’ll be returning to our beloved home stage – the Ultimo dojo – for a second season in 2026!
In response to losing our government funding and stepping back from the main stage in 2025, Dojo Live – a series of intimate, in-house concerts – became the spark that ignited a long-held dream: to produce our own studio performances, staying true to Percussion Australia’s mission of spotlighting artists and works with a percussive soul. And one of the perks of performing in our own dojo? All our instruments are already here – no staircases, elevators, or 8-tonne trucks to navigate! That means we can deliver a unique program we’d never be able to take on tour.
This year's series features four fabulous concerts:
Dojo Live 1 : Team USA Returns! | Sunday 9 August | 6:00pm
Dojo Live 2 : TATAKU Youngbloods! | Sunday 27 September | 6:00pm
Dojo Live 3 : Taikoz In Concert | Saturday 14 November 2026 | 7:00pm | Special Guests: ATA Ensmble
Dojo Live 3 : Taikoz In Concert | Sunday 15 November 2026 | 7:00pm | Special Guests: Taiko no Wa
