Fremantle, the thunder is coming!In celebration of the Year of the Fire Horse, Taiko On Perth will ignite the forecourt of the historic, award-winning WA Shipwrecks Museum with a commanding live performance.
As dragon boat crews power through Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour, the energy moves ashore. Towering taiko drums will take centre stage, their deep, rhythmic beats striking in unison and echoing against the museum’s heritage stone. Precision choreography and disciplined movement combine to deliver a performance that is strong, focused and unforgettable.
Be there as the drums roll across the harbour and the energy of the Fire Horse carries through the waterfront. With dragon boat crews racing offshore and taiko rhythms rising against the historic museum backdrop, the precinct comes alive in one powerful festival moment.
