Cairns Ukulele Festival 
Hello all!!
I have just dropped by the site to say thank you very much for such a wonderful festival… I was blown away by the standard of the performers involved and have come home well and truly inspired to devote a little more time to ukulele (I also play guitar and keyboards).
I was the lucky winner of the AMAZING handmade Mya-Moe $800 Ukulele! (yes- there was much jumping and squealing involved). I couldn’t be happier – it is such a breathtaking instrument and has a strong and clear tone, it’s simply a pleasure to play.
Thank-you very much to the festival organisers who made it all possible and a shout out to Mya-Moe Ukulele’s for my incredible new uke!

Thank you all for making the uke festival one of the best times I have ever had. The organizing was super and they even let me help some! tHE PEOPLE WHO WERE TEACHING WERE GREat, especially James Hill! Never hadmore fun in my 77 years! Do it again next year, Jan Mattock, Vernon B.C. Canada
Indeed a fine festival it was.
You may ask why.
It was at the Tanks on the 4th of July.
There I met my true love.
Not a word of a lie.
