Important Announcement Regarding Ukulele Picnic in Hawaii at Blue Note Hawaii Due to the ongoing uncertainty regarding COVID-19 in Hawaii, as well as a scheduling conflict amongst performers for the event, we have made the unfortunate decision to cancel our upcoming November event at the Blue Note Hawaii.

| 2021.01.13 | Important Announcement regarding Ukulele Picnic in Hawaii 2021 It is with regret that we have to announce the postponement of Ukulele Picnic in Hawaii 2021. The production team had worked to prepare for a livestream of the Picnic in February, however, we have decided to postpone the event due to the uncertainty and current restrictions from the COVID-19 situation. At this moment, the team is looking forward to holding the 2021 Picnic in September, and we hope it will be a physical event in Hawaii. We cannot wait to see your familiar faces (and some new faces!) on the lawn, enjoying music and friendship in Hawaii with lots of Aloha. Promotion of the event, including a possible “kick-off” livestream, may start in April and continue until the actual event in September. As you know, this pandemic has prevented many events and tourism in Hawaii, and our hearts are heavy thinking about the hardship endured by people in the entertainment and tourism industry. It is our sincere commitment to find ways to support our beloved artists and musicians in this challenging time, but we are hopeful that your Kokua will become a true instrument of our future success. For further information about the Picnic and related promotional events, please check with our homepage and Facebook page. The production team of Ukulele Picnic in Hawaii 2021 would like to send big Mahalo for your support and understanding of our decision, and we are looking forward to connecting with you soon. Please continue to be safe, to stay healthy, and to share Aloha! |
