A celebration of our 15th festival. All performers musical acts are welcome to apply for this happy community event only the ukulele can do.
Once all applications are received we will draw up the final program and workshops schedules that will engage, entertain, and educate.
We are pleased to present to you some of the very best experienced mentors to our workshops.
Our ukulele groups collectives from near and far are ready to perform and entertain you. We have merchants, raffles, t-shirts, ukuleles, money tree raffles (winner takes all) fabulous food and great service from the new refurbished Diggers@The Entrance RSL.
CCUF this year has two main stages, stage 1 Lounge with new balcony and Stage 2 The Pavillion room (hooray) great view, so there will be no volume issues from either stage and both are beautifully appointed rooms. We plan to have an open mic, and ukulele jams and more.
We have booked two professional sound engineers and assistants to make you sound your best and we have volunteers to help you on-off stage plus stagehands to help you plug in and change the mic covers.

Please when your set is finished remove your disposable mic cover from mic and place it either in your pocket ( you may keep them if you wish) or place in bin provided by the stage.
