Ryo Montgomery Workshops

I just want to congratulate you and the hard working team on such a wonderful, successful event over the week end. The children had an absolute fantastic time. They were so excited to perform and it was so lovely that the audience were so receptive and supportive of their efforts. I was so proud to see them performing and singing confidentially in front of a big audience at such a young age. I really enjoyed seeing the terrific Ukulele groups performing. It’s so nice to see people sharing their passion for music. Definitely count us in for next year.

Thank you to Len and Karen from Binary Music for having us to the event again this year.  Jet Music is always happy to get involved with the ukulele committees and festivals as we’re pretty heavily invested in the Uke scene. Really good show, excellent turnout, great venues and really good to see some excellent live performers and the talent each year increasing and the size of the whole event each year increasing. So, great job to Len and Karen from Binary Music and REDARTS team. – Eddie

The weekend was fantastic, I came here on Saturday for the open mic, geez there’s some talent there eg our young local student Georgie Taylor who won the bursary last year’s festival. She has really progressed this year and she’s going to grow up to be a very famous lady. Sunday was fantastic, the weather was inclement, but the alternative venue was good, Len and Karen and REDARTS did a fantastic job. – George

What a huge success the Uke Festival was. Congratulations to you and the organizers of the event. I enjoyed the workshops with Mike and Tom. You all did a fabulous job. Hope to see you next year.

On behalf of MUGS I wish to congratulate you on a wonderful event that was the Redlands Ukulele Festival. It was absolutely fabulous and you and the organizers deserve great credit for staging such a successful event. We were happy to be part of the event and know that it will only get better next year.

On Thursday we had the ukulele group in the shopping centre performing and that was great to hear them and it was good for business for me. They all like to come down for lunch afterwards. On Saturday we had a busier Saturday than the last few Saturday and we were hoping that was because of the impact of the Ukulele Festival. – Kate

I am very happy that the Redlands Ukulele Festival was such a success. We’d love to be involved again next year.

– I thought it was awesome and fantastic to see all those professional guys and girls up there having a go at their ukuleles and I think they’ve done a fantastic job. And to put this festival on it takes a lot of hard work for Karen  and Len and the sponsors and that, to come up and actually have it in Cleveland, have it in the Redlands, because in my whole life I’ve never been to one, I used to live in Maryborough and they never had one up there. When I came to the Redlands I saw the road signs and found out about the festival.  I enjoyed it and I hope there’s more to come like this. – Brad

Overall, I thought it was fabulous, it was really well organised. The artists were amazing, the crowd was great and it was just a really good two days worth of entertainment. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I highly recommend it, anyone who wants to come along next year should come along and have a listen. It’s fabulous! – Michelle

I enjoyed working at the Ukulele Festival, my husband and I enjoyed the concert and appreciated the work, time and effort that you and the RedArts committee contributed to such a successful event. Congratulations it certainly was a successful event.
