The boys are back! The Yorkshire Dales Ukulele Weekender’s Gala Evening Show returns to Settle Victoria Hall with a night of brilliant performers from around the world.
The headliners are award-winning international duo Dead Mans Uke, joined by Mel Day on harmonica. They play dirt swing, hokum, old blues and some very unlikely covers on double bass and a resonator ukulele that once belonged to Tiny Tim. They’ve taken their show from Settle to Prague, Las Vegas and Australia.
Joining them are three very special guests:
Rita Braga (from Portugal): a whimsical mix of cabaret, vintage tunes and experimental pop, sung in more than ten languages.
Julia Traser (from Italy): a Brighton-based singer-songwriter with a sweet voice and heartfelt songs written around the ukulele.
Phil Doleman (from Belper): stomping vintage blues, swing and jug band music on ukulele and banjo. His own songs sound so old that people think they’re classics.

Most of our shows use ‘cabaret-style’ seating. This means that your seats will be unreserved, which allows you to decide where to sit when you arrive.
The stalls (downstairs) are set up informally, with chairs around small tables, for a sociable, relaxed atmosphere, and somewhere to put your drink. Cabaret seating also allows space for dancing, which is highly encouraged at Victoria Hall!
For those who prefer a more ‘traditional’ theatre experience, the balcony seats are laid out in rows and raked, ensuring all seats have an excellent view.
For parties of six or more, tables in the stalls can be reserved- contact us to reserve a table. If you have reserved a table, we ask that at least one of your party turn up at least 30 minutes before the performance start time, in order to secure your table.
We can always reserve seating or wheelchair spaces in the stalls for those unable to use the stairs- just let us know when you book your tickets.
Please note, online bookings are subject to a booking fee. Tickets can also be bought by phone on 01729 825718, or in person at our box office. Opening hours are 10am-2pm, Monday-Friday.
Show end times given are an estimate only. Doors open 45 minutes before show start times.
Settle Victoria Hall reserves the right to turn away any customers not adhering to social-distancing laws, government guidelines, and/ or venue safeguarding policies.
