Workshop African Drums

Instruments for this workshop will be provided by TROMP Percussion Eindhoven.

Learn the basics of the African Drum from African percussion legend Pape Seck! Seck is descendant from a family of griots – musical nomads comparable to troubadours. The Senegalese percussionist gained fame in his home country as a member of the famous band Raam Daan. Seck plays a wide range of percussion instruments, including sowruba, sabar, bougarabou, tama, djembe, calabashes, krin, doundoun, sangban, kenkeni, and tabala.

GLOW Eindhoven

The annual light art festival GLOW will illuminate the streets of Eindhoven from November 9 to 16 with a stunning light-filled backdrop. With over 750,000 visitors each year during this week, the city becomes particularly busy. We advise you to allow extra time so you can arrive on time for the concert you’re attending.

Road closures
From November 9 to 16, some roads will be closed daily from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM. Check the GLOW route and the recommended transportation and parking options here.

Our advice
If possible, we recommend not coming to the concert by car. Muziekgebouw Eindhoven is within walking distance of Eindhoven Central Station, and trains will still be running after the concert. Alternatively, feel free to come by bike and park it for free at the bicycle parking on 18 Septemberplein. Check all bicycle parking locations and opening times here.

Still prefer to come by car? We advise parking at one of the Q-Park garages or at a Park & Ride (P+R) location and continuing your journey by public transport. View the recommended transportation and parking options here.
