Uke on The Tyne

“Uke on The Tyne” (the free Ukulele Festival previously known as “Strum on The Tyne”) is part of the Crossing The Tyne Festival.

The “Crossing The Tyne Festival” is a completely voluntary event.
All venues, performers and organisers give their performance spaces, equipment, time, talents and energies for free – to entertain, enjoy the community spirit and raise funds for good causes.
The Crossing The Tyne Festival was recognised by the Great Exhibition of The North 2018 as an Inspirational Event!
