Live Music With Uminari Taiko

MEET THE ARTISTS

Uminari Taiko is Vancouver Island’s first taiko drumming ensemble. They're a community-focused collective rooted in tradition and rhythm. Based in Victoria, this powerful group brings the ancient art of Japanese drumming to life through performance, education, and a deep connection to culture.

Whether performing at festivals, schools, or cultural events, Uminari Taiko delivers each beat with purpose. Their shows are a full-body experience. The kind you feel in your chest. The kind that stirs something in your soul. Through their work, they invite audiences of all ages to discover the joy, discipline, and unity of taiko.

THE MUSICAL EXPERIENCE

On summer weekends, Malahat SkyWalk comes alive with music that moves you and Uminari Taiko moves you in every sense of the word. Picture the bold rhythms of taiko rising above the treetops, resonating across the lookout, and weaving through the crowd as the sun warms the spiral tower.

It’s a moment of stillness and strength. A celebration of culture and connection. And a completely different kind of afternoon out.

Between the live performance, the delicious eats, and the unbeatable view, your evening at Malahat SkyWalk becomes a full sensory adventure and it becomes one to remember and one to return to.

WHY THIS BELONGS ON YOUR SUMMER LIST

Uminari Taiko is not your average performance, just like Malahat SkyWalk is not your average venue. This is where ancient rhythms meet coastal air. Where families, friends, and curious wanderers gather under the sky to connect with something larger.

It’s music you feel. Nature you remember. And a view that stretches beyond just what you see.
