Ukuleles Canberra - aka URoC (Ukulele Republic of Canberra)

We will be using Songbook 1.

We no longer publish Songbook 1. If you require a pdf of the Songbook please send your email address to one of the Organisers/hosts by direct message through this site, and a copy will be emailed to you. Alternatively, you could share another member's copy at the meetup.

2.00pm to 4.00pm Saturday 18 April 2026

Register to attend: Please RSVP on this meetup site. Please do not attend if you are feeling unwell.
Format:
We use the kanakapila format, where everyone takes a turn to choose a song from the Songbook with the whole group playing and singing along. You can choose to perform your chosen song or you can bring a new song with around 20 copies to share. You can also pass your turn.
When it is your turn, we encourage you to lead the song using the mic and sound equipment provided. We encourage everyone to have a go at this, because having the song led at the mic helps to keep the song moving along with the bass and percussion.
Payment:
Please don’t forget to pay $10 for attendance at URoC meetups (which covers venue hire and other costs). Thank you, if you have already paid in advance.
Online payment is preferred.
