Beni Daiko

Feel the thunder of Taiko drums! Founded in 2012, Beni Daiko is Madison's premier Taiko drumming group. "Beni" means deep red in Japanese, symbolizing Madison, and "Taiko" means drum. Beni Daiko will introduce Japanese culture through powerful Taiko drumming with traditional lion dances and modern interpretations. Get ready for an interactive experience, perfect for little ones who love to make noise and move to the beat!
