A place to meet others who love to play the ukulele
The Ukulele Jam in Whangārei offers a welcoming spot for ukulele lovers to gather and play. This weekly event invites beginners and intermediate level players to an hour of non-stop playing.
Held every Tuesday from 6pm to 7pm, in a relaxed atmosphere where participants connect through simple melodies. There's no formal teacher or commitment required—just bring your enthusiasm and your ukulele. A koha of $5 is suggested to cover costs, keeping it affordable and accessible for all.
The hour starts with warm-up exercises, followed by playing along to lyrics and chords displayed on the wall. This format promotes organic learning, where attendees pick up tips from one another in a pressure-free environment. You might even spark a smaller circle of friends to keep playing ukulele together at other times.
No membership or registration is needed. Whether you're 18 or 80, just show up ready to strum. 🎸
Come along even if you don't play but like to sing!
