“If everyone played the ukulele, the world would be a better place.” – Jake Shimabukuro 

Exploring his seemingly limitless musical vocabulary on perhaps the unlikeliest of instruments, ukulele master Jake Shimabukuro has grown from local phenom to Hollywood Bowl headliner, taking the ukulele to points previously thought impossible. This holiday season, the jolly ambassador of aloha brings joy to the world with Christmas in Hawai'i. Drawing on his signature favorites, a vibrant catalog of holiday classics, and selections from his recent Jake & Friends album, this merry live show is sure to make spirits bright.
