USGB Autumn Convention

Sunday October 6th 2019

This is the second of the Society's bi-annual conventions in 2019.

The meetings are very relaxed in nature and are a great opportunity to see some excellent performers as well as to meet and interact with other ukulele players from all over the country. The atmosphere is always very friendly.

Whenever possible, we start the day off with a workshop on a topic of interest to ukulele players. The workshop for this convention is yet to be confirmed.

All members are invited to play two songs in one of the concerts and backing is (optionally) provided by "Rumpole" Bailey on keyboards and Dave Griggs on bass. Performances are usually videoed and a video of your performance may well be placed on the USGB's YouTube channel and linked from the Videos page on this site.
