​APRIL 8th
2nd Annual Davis Cherry Blossom Festival
​Tomorrow, April 8th, from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Sudwerk's Brewery in Davis, CA, will be the 2nd Annual Davis Cherry Blossom festival with performances by Bakuhatsu and other collegiate and professional taiko teams along with other artists and groups. All the performers and organizations involved would love to bring in Spring with everyone of all ages at this free event. There will also be food, taiko lessons, limited edition beer brews, mochi pounding, game booths, and more! 

APRIL 16th
Cal Raijin Taiko's 10th Annual Showcase, Kakehashi

The weekend after the Cherry Blossom Festival, Bakuhatsu will be hard at work practicing, but we're also going to take some time to visit our friends from Cal Raijin in Berkeley, CA for their 10th Annual Showcase, Kakehashi, on Sunday April 16th from 2-4 p.m. at the Chevron Auditorium, International House, UC Berkeley.

APRIL 22nd
​UC Davis' 103rd Annual Picnic Day
During the third weekend of April, Bakuhatsu is going to make team history by participating in UC Davis' 103rd Annual Picnic Day Parade for the first time ever. For weeks, we've been building our float and we'll be decorating it with origami and lanterns from the Cherry Blossom Festival. We can't wait to show it off as we play our hearts out for the entire duration of the parade. We will also be performing at the Children's Discovery Fair stage at 11 a.m. the same day. Picnic Day takes place on April 22nd and is an all day family-friendly event with many other performers, activities, and foods.

APRIL 29th
​Bakuhatsu's 6th Annual Showcase, Kizuna
​The last weekend of April is the one Bakuhatsu has been preparing for all school year: it's the weekend of our 6th Annual Showcase, Kizuna! The showcase will take place on April 29th at the Davis Veteran's Memorial Center at 4 p.m. and our theme, Kizuna, means bond. We'll be showcasing how our close-knit family of taiko players has bonded, grown, and worked so hard together through an incredible evening of taiko. From the newest members, GenXVI, performing in their first showcase to many of the returning members performing in their last showcase, it will be a show you don't want to miss.
