We had a great time at the open mic night tonight, and looking forward to spending the day in the park tomorrow soaking up some more ukulele atmosphere 🎶

Join us on Sunday for the main concert in the People’s Park, Dun Laoghaire at 11:30am.

We have an amazing lineup of ukulele artists local and international, both new faces to the festival, and some old friends joining us for what promises to be a memorable experience. All times are approximate.

The Ukulele Hooley Big Jam with this years theme of weather related songs will take place during the afternoon.

The Sunday concert comes to an end with the Hooley Raffle final results and the Finale Closing Performance.
