Music Made For The Great Outdoors

Percussion Play is the leading manufacturer of outdoor musical instruments. With a diverse selection of musical and percussion instruments, we are committed to making musical expression accessible to everyone, everywhere.

Music is found in every known culture, past and present and has evolved to become a fundamental component of human life. Differences in age, gender, ethnic or linguistic background have no place in music and obstacles present in other activities defined by motor and mental ability are absent where music is concerned. Music is naturally the most universal language at our disposal and everyone has the potential to make music.

Percussion Play's outdoor musical instruments make perfect additions to an abundance of settings, bringing music to outdoor spaces across the world. They can be effortlessly played and enjoyed by people of all ages and abilities, and allow kids and adults to realise how truly gratifying it is to make music together. There is no need for musical direction and any combination of our outdoor musical instruments can be played together harmoniously. Our products bring the fun and ease of playing musical and percussion instruments into the outside world, and can even provide music therapy.

Whether you are looking for a new addition for an urban space or a rural play area, music park, recreation park, school playground, elder centre or tourist attraction, at Percussion Play we have a range of funky inclusive outdoor play equipment and inclusive playground equipment to suit your musical needs.

We invite you to create beautiful soundscapes in your outdoor area with Percussion Play's musical and percussion instruments.

What our customers say

“I discovered Percussion Play at the ACA conference in Orlando in 2023 and decided to place an order via their new app. It’s a great feature for camp Directors like myself to use, and I encourage others to download it to help bring their musical programs to life!”

Raina Baker, Executive Director,

Camp Beausite (Camp For People of All Abilities)

Case Study
We knew when we saw the Petal Drums that they would fit perfectly in the Music Garden and the little children would be excited by them. We then looked at other options and added in the Rainbow Cavatina – something our older kids are loving – they get to play recognizable tunes!” “We knew that we would be getting a high-quality product, and it has been a huge hit with our campers,”

Alex Eadie, Senior Director of Advancement,

Jewish Community Centre of Greater Buffalo (JCC)

Case Study
In the theatre, we host performances where professionals, such as the Santa Fe Symphony, come and perform. It's beautiful to see how Percussion Play's instruments align nicely with what is going on in the theatre. We see kids reflect what is happening on stage—they copy and make their own music!"

Hannah Hausman, Executive Director,

Santa Fe Children's Museum

Case Study
We had a pollinator garden at the entrance to our center and we were looking at ways to rejuvenate the garden as it was a lot to maintain so we were really looking at ways to enhance what we already had. A science center near us had a range of Percussion Play instruments, so we were inspired to create a musical garden using these instruments as we were so impressed by them

Kansas Wetlands Center

Case Study
'We have been absolutely thrilled with the music equipment supplied by Percussion Play. Our Early Years and Key Stage 1 children use it on a daily basis, enriching both learning and play. It is a joy to see them enjoying it so much and a year on it still looks as good it did on day one. Thank you!'
