The Cape Town Jazzathon, the premier festival for grassroots jazz in the Mother City, is back and set to take place at the V&A Waterfront Amphitheatre.
The event, which was cancelled in 2020 due to the pandemic, will take place tomorrow, January 13 until Sunday, January 15, and is free and open to the public.
With a jam-packed programme, jazz, fusion and music lovers can enjoy at least six performances daily between 12h00 and 20h00.
The event is known as the ‘People’s Festival’ and serves as a platform for the discovery and development of emerging artists who have gone on to make a name for themselves in the music industry.
The Cape Town Jazzathon has already hosted workshops for developing artists at community schools across Cape Town and will hold similar programmes for the Karoo, the West Coast and Garden Route.
