Drum along with the Sounds of the Waves and the Famous Venice Sunset!
If you are in Venice on a weekend day, stick around after the sun goes down and hit up the drum circle! At the end of Brooks Ave. on the beach, hundreds of people gather with their drums, shakers, congas and various percussion instruments, as well as their dancing feet, and have a jam. If you can’t find Brooks Ave, just listen and you will hear their beats. This gathering of different types of people from different parts of the world drumming, dancing, getting into the zone and feeding off other people’s energies is a must thing to do while in Venice. Drum and dance at the Venice drum circle.
ABOUT: The Drum Circle forms on the beach directly in front of where Brooks avenue meets Ocean Front Walk.
