THIS EVENT IS NOW CONFIRMED

Details (regularly updated) at the Website: http://www.largerthanlifeuk.com/uke-fest/home.php

Please email us from the website or call to let us know if you are coming!

I'm seriously considering organising a one day ukulele minifest in my home town of Newbury, Berkshire. UK.
I have a reasonable sized rehearsal space in an industrial unit where I run my business

I am toying with Sunday 18th April 2010 as a proposed date. So I am really testing the water to see if any UK undergrounders would be interested in attending? it would be great to put some faces to names on here!
I'm guessing the day would feature a several workshops during the day and obviously plenty of time for jamming, trying out each others ukes etc, then maybe an open mike session in the evening or a ukulele band. There would probably be a small charge (approx £5) to cover the room hire and teas and coffes etc.
Reply here or over at UK.lele if you may be interested in coming. PM me if you would like to offer a workshop or would like to perform.

Cheers

John

That is the weekend of the Paris Ukulele Bazar. It is a sort of mini festival. I would imagine that a few few UK ukers will be there. I certainly will.
 
Duly noted Ken! (obviously not doing my homework) I've also just noticed there is an evening ukulele event in Colliers Wood, SW London on the Saturday evening!
I guess I will see what interest there is!
The date is not set in stone by any means but I have to fit it in with my already busy diary.
Being the in the corporate events industry, most of my event work is at weekends!

Very nice idea. I'll be in Southern Italy then, but if you'll go for another date or organize a 2nd mini uke festival, I will try to make it to the UK. I'm very lonesome here in Switzerland without ukulele friends to jam with :-(
