Three days full of beats: International Drummer Meeting in Salzgitter!
The 37th International Drummer Meeting is coming up in Salzgitter - an event that attracts drummers and music enthusiasts alike. From October 3rd to 5th, 2025, the city will be transformed into a true rhythm stronghold that offers something for everyone. The event promises not only educational workshops, but also exciting concerts that will make all hearts beat faster.
Top-class lecturers are on the program under the motto “Pure rhythm”. These include well-known names like Dirk Erchinger from Apache 207, Eddie Fillip from Sweety Glitter and Randy Black, who has already appeared on stage with greats like Alice Cooper. Chris Heiny, member of the Blue Man Group, and Ben Flohr from the band “The Voice of Germany” also provide a breath of fresh air and exciting workshops. Many of these experts offer personal learning units that are organized in a friendly atmosphere and where the number of places is limited. An excellent concept that is intended to encourage participants to deepen their skills and develop individual strengths.

And that's not all: the Drummer Meeting concert series has a lot to offer. On Thursday, October 2nd, the opening concert of “The Drum Mafia” will be attended at 7:30 p.m. The “Sons of the Preacher Man” concert follows on Friday at 8:00 p.m. And on Saturday it will be really cozy, because there will be an open drum circle with Ben Flohr, followed by a performance by the “Daniel Glass Trio” and a lecturer’s concert in the evening. It's worth being there!
There is good news for everyone who is interested not only in the workshops but also in the concerts. The concert tickets are available not only for workshop participants, but also for all other music lovers. There are also reduced ticket prices for participants: you get a discounted additional ticket for the opening concert on Thursday, and the concerts on Friday and Saturday are included in the ticket price. A good offer for anyone who wants to experience the art of drumming up close.
