Our handcrafted cymbals sing with clarity and character, dark and moody, bright and energetic, or uniquely in between.

Every product Dream Cymbals make must be truly musical.
Dream Cymbals
We are committed to preserving and evolving traditional cymbal making by hand. Every instrument is created with a human touch, not automation, to deliver a level of detail and sound quality that machines cannot replicate.
From the warm, versatile sounds of the Bliss series, to the complex character of the Dark Matter series, the focused attack of the Contact series, and the bright response of the Energy series, Dream offers a full spectrum of sounds for drummers to explore. Each series, size, and weight is carefully crafted to work in harmony with the others.
Every drummer has their own sound, and every Dream cymbal has its own
voice. Explore the range, find the cymbals that speak to you, and
discover what makes your sound unique.

What to Expect from The Dream Cymbal Experience
We’re delighted to be returning to this year’s UK Drum Show with our very own Dream Cymbal Experience Room – a dedicated, acoustically controlled space where you can truly hear our cymbals as they are meant to sound.
Come along to discover what makes Dream Cymbals unique, meet the artists who play them, get hands-on with a selection of cymbals and learn more about the craftsmanship behind them, including why B20 bronze produces its distinctive sound and the mystery of double-firing a cymbal.
Meet the Dream Family
We’re excited to welcome Andy Morris, President and Founder of Dream Cymbals, alongside a fantastic line-up of Dream artists.
Come and chat with Andy about your ideal cymbal, explore what makes the perfect sound for you and, who knows, he may even be able to work with you to create an original idea.
Throughout the weekend, there will be forums hosted by Andy and Dream artists, giving you the opportunity to hear their experiences, ask questions and get closer to the world of Dream Cymbals.
On Saturday evening, join us for a Dream Hang! A relaxed opportunity to meet and chat with many of the Dream artists and become part of the Dream family.
Dream Gong Chill
Sunday morning will see a UK Drum Show first: the Dream Gong Chill.
For the first 40 minutes of Sunday, experience the mesmerising sounds of our Chau, Feng (Wind) and mBao Gongs in a unique and immersive session designed to let you simply stop, listen and experience the sound.
Whether you’re already part of the Dream family or discovering our cymbals for the first time, we’d love to welcome you to the Dream Cymbal Experience.
Inspired by the musicianship and vision of our founder, and the incredible artists he has brought together over the past 20 years, Dream Cymbals continues to create instruments with character, individuality and soul.
Come in, have a listen, meet the artists and discover your Dream.
Dream Cymbals would like to thank the British Drum Company for loan of a drum kit and extra hardware.
