Locals, get ready to tighten those ukulele strings and get your toes tapping as experienced United Kingdom ukulele teacher, Peter Moss, is heading to Rotorua.
He will teach a Rock and Roll Workshop, followed by a concert.
Taking place on Saturday, Peter will teach a one hour workshop covering four classic rock and roll tunes in four different keys.
Starting at 5pm, the workshop will be taught for two different levels of difficulty so that it suits all players.
Rotorua Museum volunteer co-ordinator Julie Parsons says Peter is on his first visit to New Zealand, but visits Australia three times a year.
Peter is an international, professional performer and workshop presenter, with more than 45 years' experience in both ukulele and banjulele.
Julie says this is an amazing opportunity for locals to learn from an international ukulele expert.
"You can always pick something valuable up at a workshop and Peter calls his workshops 'funshops'.
"This one is likely to be extra fun as it is using rock and roll tunes and he has split the songs into parts with different levels of difficulty so that everyone can participate."
Following the workshop will be a light bring-a-plate supper and a chance to chat to Peter and other ukulele enthusiasts.
The concert begins at 7pm with Rotorua's own Ukulele band, The Thermaleles, leading the charge.
"It isn't often we get the chance to see the level of expertise someone like Peter Moss brings to Rotorua and we need to take advantage of these opportunities when we can.
"If we support visitors like Peter we will build a reputation for being a community worth visiting!"
Julie says there are still a few tickets left and they will be available until 12pm on tomorrow.
Tickets are $20 and include the workshop and concert.

The concert and workshop will take place at 94 Springfield Rd.
