The Peace Drum at the Chapat Shamanic Festival 2026

For the past ten years, Peter Rijken and his dedicated team have lovingly brought the Chapat Festival to life, a unique gathering where nature, music, spirituality, and human connection meet in harmony. With passion and devotion, they create a welcoming space each year where people of all ages can come together, share, and grow.

This year, the Peace Drum was deeply honored to be part of this beautiful celebration. Its heartbeat echoed throughout the festival, resonating with the many hearts gathered in unity, creating moments of presence, connection, and peace.

For the Peace Drum, this was a milestone, its very first journey beyond its home. It marked the beginning of a new path, carrying its message of peace into the world. Warmly embraced by the Chapat community, it naturally found its place among the ceremonies, drum circles, music, and heartfelt encounters.

May this first journey be the beginning of many more, as the Peace Drum continues to travel from heart to heart, inspiring connection, harmony, and peace wherever its voice is heard.
