Welcome to our 8th edition of Bristol Jazz and Blues Festival! While the eagerly anticipated renovations at Colston Hall continue, we will be staging concerts at St George’s, Bristol Folk House, O2 Academy, Fiddlers, Colston Hall foyer and Bambalan where we hope you’ll find plenty to satisfy your jazz and blues tastes!
As always, we try our best to present as many different genres under the jazz and blues umbrella as possible, featuring as many of Bristol and the South West’s jazz and blues talent as we can squeeze on stage. Our policy has always been to showcase the world class musicians we have living among us and have them collaborate with our
visiting artists and there’s lots in this year’s programme to fullfill that aim.
On behalf of the whole team,
we wish you a wonderful
weekend of music and
we thank you for your
continued support.
Denny Ilett
Artistic Director
