Japanese American National Museum Plaza is taiko central
100 North Central Ave, Los Angeles California 90012

CicLAvia closes streets in and around downtown LA for more than 100,000 bike riders, walkers, joggers, skateboarders, unicyclers, and rollerbladers for a day of outdoor fun.

The Los Angeles Taiko Institute has fashioned a bike-pulled taiko trailer that allows them to pull a drum through the streets and entertain themselves and the other riders.

Using the JANM Plaza as LATI's hub, The Los Angeles Taiko Institute will have performances by its staff and students and play Tally Ho! as they roll along the CicLAvia course.

Performances at JANM Plaza by Los Dokos, Taiko Effect, Miyake Kai, Hachijo Aikokai, and Matsuri Crashers, plus Tally Ho! students, teachers, and guest artists on the taiko bike trailer.
