40th Anniversary Ukulele Festival 2010

The annual Honolulu 'Ukulele Festival is undoubtedly the longest running, and most likely the foremost gathering of 'ukulele players, fans and instruments, in the world. And why shouldn't that be the case, since 'ukulele was born in Hawaii.

This year's Festival in 2010 marks the 40th anniversary of this very special celebration of Hawaii's famous and beloved instrument. And Festival organizer Roy Sakuma (now along with staff) has been teaching generation upon generation how to play 'ukulele for even longer than that.

The energy, spirit and good feelings from that memorable Sunday at Kapiolani Park Bandstand come across in this warmhearted video. Featuring among others, performances by Jake Shimabukuro and Cecilio & Kapono.
