SENIORS WEEK WILL BE CELEBRATED BY A UKULELE EVENT
This will happen from 1:00pm to 1:50pm at the main square of Federation Square.
Celebration Day is the official launch of the Victorian Seniors Festival. In 2025, a special feature will be an interactive and intergenerational ukulele performance. Bring along your uke and play along with older and younger Victorians from across the state.
Get ready to strum, sing, and celebrate! This year Celebration Day comes with a joyful twist. A mass ukulele performance in the heart of the city!Whether you’ve been playing for years or just dusted off your uke, all are welcome. This interactive, intergenerational event invites both seasoned players and enthusiastic beginners to join Victorians of all ages in a feel-good musical experience. Don’t worry if you don’t know every tune — lyrics and chord tabs will be displayed on the big screen in Federation Square so you can strum along at your own pace.
You can play for the full 50-minute show or just jump in for your favourite songs. Individuals and groups are invited to register to take part, and everyone who signs up will receive a Player’s Toolkit, complete with:
- A full set list (9 songs)
- Chord charts and lyrics
- Rehearsal videos to help you practise
Registrations open now — don’t miss your chance to be part of something special.
