Get ready - the JazzYYC Summer Festival is back starting June 23, and it’s bringing seven days packed with incredible live jazz! This year’s lineup has it all: international jazz legends, top Canadian talent, and some of Calgary’s best local musicians. It’s a full-on celebration of jazz in all its forms.
We’re super excited to roll out five different concert series, the always-popular Saturday Jam, and a brand-new Youth Jazz Showcase — all happening at some of Calgary’s coolest venues. Think Bella Concert Hall, Studio Bell, King Eddy, Festival Hall, Ironwood Stage & Grill, and Cornerstone Music Café. Each spot brings its own vibe for some seriously unforgettable shows.
This year is a big one for us, and we’re incredibly grateful to the Radomski Foundation for their amazing support. Along with our awesome volunteers, donors, venue partners, and the whole JazzYYC crew, they’ve helped keep the festival going strong.
Come be part of it and soak in a week of world-class jazz right here in Calgary!
