There will be instruments to share and try out and also the opportunity to go home with a new instrument!
For those of you that already own your own Handpan, this will be your best opportunity to have your instruments retuned or serviced by Celestial Sound, Australasia’s most reputable maker. If you don't own a Handpan then you may rent one from us for the weekend for $30 in order to participate on your own instrument.
Celestial Sound Handpan owners can use their serial number in the discount code section to receive their $40 discount.
All are welcome, no experience playing the instrument necessary. Beginner, intermediate and advanced players will all have something to learn.
Looking forward to seeing you there.
