Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra

Wildly popular music-comedy sensation The Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra are back on the road with their newest record, “I Love You…”, another serving of infectious, ukulele-infused hit songs.

This tour sees the orchestra play new towns never before explored by the band, who look forward to bringing their charming swagger to new corners of New Zealand. Heavenly harmonies and stunning solos are juxtaposed against hilariously budget special effects, madcap antics and questionable banter, delighting crowds of all ages.

Lead by Age Pryor (Fly My Pretties, Woolshed Sessions), the band formed six years ago at a tiny café in Wellington and have since become a cult favourite, causing a mad scramble for tickets wherever they go.

“An unmissable funfest” – Rip It Up magazine
