Jake Shimabukuro at WJCT Soundstage 2025

This show will be held at the WJCT Soundstage located at 100 Festival Park Ave Jacksonville, Florida 32202.
Over the past two decades, Ukulele sensation, Jake Shimabukuro has proved that there isn’t a style of music that he can’t play. While versatility for any musician is impressive, what’s remarkable about Shimabukuro’s transcendent skills is how he explores his seemingly limitless vocabulary – whether it’s jazz, rock, blues, bluegrass, folk or even classical – on perhaps the unlikeliest of instruments: the ‘ukulele. Responding to the urgent calls of his fervent imagination, the Hawai’i-born virtuoso has taken the ‘ukulele to points previously thought impossible, and in the process he’s reinvented the applications for this tiny, heretofore underappreciated four-string instrument, causing many to call him “the Jimi Hendrix of the ‘ukulele.”
Please note all seating areas are accessible, so there is no need to purchase specific accessible seating. For questions, contact the box office at 904-355-2787 or boxoffice@floridatheatre.com.
