Mount Juliet, TN, May 1, 2026...May is the 5th month of the year and with four successful years of historic deals under its belt, Mapex Drums is partnering with retailers across the USA to roll out the 5th consecutive month long “May is for Mapex” promotion. With brand-wide discounts on gear across the breadth of their offering, Mapex is inspiring all drummers out to upgrade, add or replace anything in their drumming arsenal or collection.

“May is for Mapex, continues to be a yearly tradition," states Mapex Brand Manager Jeff Mulvihill. “It started as a post-pandemic uplift for the drumming community and has blossomed into an exciting annual tradition that we are immensely proud of. Supporting pro drummers, students, collectors, and hobbyists through the music retail community is what May is for Mapex is all about. It really is for every drummer of today and every aspiring drummer of tomorrow!”

Coinciding with International Drum Month, the declaration that “May is for Mapex” offers a boost to the growth of the percussive community.
