Renowned classical guitarist Edgar Cruz will even get in on the fun this year, and is scheduled to make a cameo appearance on the ukulele about 1:30 p.m.

Shortly before 5 p.m., The Big Ol’ Uke Band, composed of several of the acts, will take the stage for a finale. This will be the third UkeFest for the Round Barn, which features live music every weekend.

The festival stage will be outdoors beneath the shade of the giant elm tree on the north side of the barn. Guests can bring blankets and lawn chairs or sit at the picnic tables.
