Taking place over ten days from 12-21 July the festival will include over 170 performances featuring: top Scottish bands, international stars, and festival favourites alongside new names.
The full festival programme is available now.
Tickets are on sale and can be purchased by calling 0131 226 0013 or through the festival website.
I was delighted to attend yesterday’s launch as both Council Leader and as a Board Member of the Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival.
I am proud that our residents and visitors are able to take advantage of such an internationally eclectic and exciting festival with over 170 performances to choose from.
The Council is a proud supporter and funder of the EJBF, and in the decades since it began, the festival has grown and thrived, and established itself as one of the best around.
Thank you to the EJBF Board, the artists and everyone else who has contributed to the festival this year.
Council Leader Cammy Day
We are absolutely delighted to launch our 46th Festival. There is something for everyone in our ten-day programme and in communities across the city. We are really grateful to our funders, including the Council. We look forward to welcoming everyone and making it a Festival to remember.
