This sounds like it could be a great do! Paul Tucker at the Southern Ukulele Store has let me know they are organising a Ukulele Festival this year, in Dorset at the end of June!
The festival will run at the Square and Compass pub in Worth Matravers, Dorset from June 29 to July 1st. As their first event, this one will be small and limited to 200 tickets. There will be a marquee in the pub garden where a range of concerts and workshops will take place, and camping is available. There is also a mass ukulele jam on the Sunday which you can attend free of charge!
Tickets are £20 for the whole weekend (camping extra) and can be obtained from the shop - either call Paul on 01202 430820 or email shop@southernukulelestore.co.uk.
