Band member Plucker Pete says: ‘Ukulele is very popular and it’s great fun and everyone is welcome to come along with or without a ukulele to join in. This is our third festival and our biggest yet.’

There’ll be 16 ukulele groups from across the region playing and jamming, and the venue has massive TV screens showing the music to jam to, making it easy for everyone to join in.
