Aloha! We're so excited to welcome you to the 12th Annual Allegheny Ukulele Soirée! The Soirée continues to be one of the highlights of the year for us and for many of our attendees. Our planning committee has been working diligently to bring you some of the best teachers out there in the ukulele community - we hope you love our lineup this year as much as we do.
New for 2025! Based on attendee feedback we have added two new jam sessions (Friday afternoon & Saturday afternoon). We have also adjusted our Saturday schedule to give a larger break in the middle of the day. To make sure we have the same great variety of workshop options, we have added new workshop blocks on Friday afternoon! Check-in/registration now begins at 3PM on Friday.
Workshops! Concerts! Uke Jams! Open Mics! Vendors! & More!

Everyone was friendly and encouraging. The level of the entertainment and instruction was top notch! I am looking forward to returning!
Great people, great fun, great workshops, Great jams and amazing organizers.
Always a great gathering of the ukulele community…a lot to learn and a lot of fun doing it!
An outstanding festival for ukulele players, both beginners and experienced. The ability to interact face-to-face with the amazing guest performers, other uke players, and vendors was invaluable.
The Soirée should win an award for the best organized ukulele festival!
The Soiree is a great program to attend. It is well organized, with a great deal of expertise, thoughtful planning and reasonable fees. Well seasoned presenters make the sessions productive and organized!
Top notch! Fantastic instructors! Very enthusiastic, informative and knowledgeable. Superb presentations. I learned so much this weekend
The Allegheny [Ukulele] Soirée is a ukulele smorgasbord...something for every age, talent level, social class...my friends are there
This festival is well run, feels intimate, and really helped grow my skills and push me to be a better player. I love the teaching artists, and the jams were fun!
