Kahilu Theatre presents the 19th annual ‘Ukulele and Slack Key Guitar Festival at 4 p.m. Saturday featuring Hawaiian musicians Sonny Lim, Jeff Peterson, Nathan Aweau, Brother Noland, Brittni Paiva, John Keawe, Ho’opono Wong, and Sean Parks.

A festival like no other, these musicians will take the stage to talk story, play music, and share their experiences as award-winning Hawaiian music artists.

The performance can be enjoyed in-person at the Waimea theater or on-demand via Kahilu TV.

In-person tickets start at $65 and can be purchased at KahiluTheatre.org. Social distancing, mask-wearing, and sanitization protocols are in place. Proof of vaccination or proof of a negative PCR test taken within 72 hours of entering the theatre is required.

On-demand tickets, which are good for an entire household, are $19.99 and available at Kahilu.TV.

On Friday, the musicians participated in Kahilu’s Education Outreach Program where they performed live on Kahilu.TV for schools across the world to give back to the communities and inspire the next generation of ‘ukulele and ki ho’alu (slack key guitar) performers.
