We are really looking forward to our ukulele fun filled trip on an open top double-decker bus, as we travel through South County Dublin, stopping off to play some tunes, and get refreshments.

Bring your ukulele and a copy of the Ukulele Hooley Songbooks, (don’t forget to bring all three books, Volume 1, 2 & 3) and we’ll have a good time.

Bus Busk registration will be at 3:45pm on Saturday 17th August at the Royal Marine Bandstand, (for those that have a ticket), and will depart at 4pm. You’ll get a stamp which will confirm you’re checked in to take part in the busk.

During the Bus Busk we will be singing songs from the festival song books, all 3 volumes. All can be downloaded from the website or you can get a copy on Saturday morning, at the festival hub in the Eblana.

The following are a guide to which songs we might sing and when; if you wanted to do some preparation. Of course, this is may change at any time,  depending on moment, and the humour of the players. We’re really looking forward to seeing you. Lets have an amazing time. You can download the 2019 Bus Busk Song plan here.
