A new cultural venue, pop up cocktails, and free music lessons 💫

It's back! Try out your favourite instrument for free at Yamaha Music London's Learn To Play '21

Any guitar heroes in the house? (Or piano or drum heroes, for that matter?)

Learn To Play '21 is here, and Yamaha Music London is celebrating in serious style. On Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 September, the Soho music store is giving away hundreds of free taster lessons on a range of musical instruments — from acoustic and digital piano to brass instruments, drums, and acoustic and electric guitar.

Is there an instrument you've always secretly wished you could play? Now's your chance to give it a go. Yamaha's team of friendly, professional music teachers are offering free lessons on a huge selection of Yamaha's leading instruments for both kids and adults, whether you've never picked up an instrument before, or are simply a bit rusty. Just turn up bright and early on the day to reserve your preferred slot (sessions start from 10.30am), and enjoy 30 minutes of 1-2-1 tuition with a professional, entirely free!

And if you can't make it to the store in person, don't fret — give Yamaha Music London's social channels and YouTube a follow, where you'll be able to catch Yamaha Music London Ambassadors Amber T and Galaxy Thief sharing their playing tips and tricks, along with exclusive performances. Time to make those musical dreams a musical reality.
