14. Czech Ukulele Festival
The Czech Ukulele Festival is the longest-running European ukulele festival, attracting visitors from all over the world, not just the Czech Republic and Europe. The British newspaper The Guardian ranked the Czech Ukulele Festival among the top ten summer festivals in Europe. The festival is committed to offering a multi-genre selection of performances at a high level of professionalism and at the same time an amazing level of entertainment.
The performers come from all corners of the world and all are among the top in their field.
Our goal is to reach and delight a wide range of visitors with music that covers the entire spectrum of genres - from classical to jazz and rock 'n' roll to rap and modern rhythm and blues - always with humor and playing the ukulele.
The Ukulele Festival is an interactive event and many visitors bring their own instrument to play with friends and strangers during a joint playing session or, especially the more daring ones, at an open mic.
The festival is a three-day event. Friday this year will be dedicated to playalongs and individual performances as part of the open mic. Ukulele picnic.
The Saturday and Sunday part of the festival takes place in the village of Únětice on the northern outskirts of Prague and offers a wide selection of concerts and workshops. The main stage is located in the courtyard of the famous Únětice Brewery, and the workshops take place in various buildings in the picturesque village. The workshops are designed for both complete beginners and advanced players.
This year, Ben and Tereza who started the festival and have run it every year, even through the difficult covid years, have decided that it will definatley be the last festival in its current form. It will finish with a bang! Come experience it with us!
If anyone will want to pick it up and start anew for the future, we wish them all success.
