Start your musical journey at the 15th Annual Reno Ukulele Festival, a 4-day event held at the Nugget Casino & Resort near the biggest little city in the world, Reno Nevada. This family friendly festival features daily sessions of workshops, evening concerts, open mics, community performances, raffle and an abundance of shopping.

Concerts & jams are hosted nightly and the concert Friday evening will take place in Reno’s famous Celebrity Showroom, a lavish stage with draping gold fabric which transports the guests to a Sinatra-esque era. For more music you can even join one of the regular midnight jams which organically form down the hallways of the festival floor and play joyously into the early morning hours.
