The Ukulele Festival of Great Britain is back for another year and will take place in Cheltenham over the Jubilee double bank holiday weekend, from Friday June 1 to Sunday June 3.
This year’s line-up features some of the finest ukulele players around, including Gerald Ross (right), Nico’o and Manitoba Hal, and groups such as The Re-Entrants, Winin Boys, Ukulollo and Scottish YouTube sensations Gus & Fin.
Uke enthusiasts from across the country are expected to descend upon the event which will also include a programme of inspiring workshops and seminars lead by the artists and players themselves.
Festival goers will also be able to take in a wide array of stalls and stands offering everything a ukulele player could want and more.
Musicroom will be at the festival, showcasing a number of exquisite, high-end ukuleles from our online and in-store range, including models from top manufacturers, Lanikai and Kala.
For wood junkies, Lanikai’s exotic zebrawood and monkey pod concert and tenor ukuleles will be available at our stand to try out and buy.
Both of these ukes look and sound fantastic, with distinctive and fresh tones beautifully coloured by the unique resonance capabilities of their woods.
The Kala Golden Acacia Ukulele is another sumptuous instrument that will be on display and available to purchase at the Musicroom festival store.
This stylish uke looks great with its natural wood patterning and sounds even better thanks to the rich tonal characteristics of its solid acacia top, back and sides, a tropical cousin of the traditional Hawaiian koa.
We will also be offering discounts and special offers on our huge range, including exciting new releases such as the Epiphone Les Paul ukulele.
