Halifax Jazz Festival

The TD Halifax Jazz Festival is a jam-packed five-day event featuring jazz, world, blues, funk, Latin, R&B, and more. The Halifax waterfront hosts the festival’s main stage which offers free and ticketed performances.

Free programming will also take place in smaller venues, libraries, public spaces and parks such as the Halifax Public Gardens.

Formerly known as the Atlantic Jazz Festival, it is the oldest jazz festival and largest summer festival in Atlantic Canada. Designated a Hallmark Event by the Halifax Regional Municipality, the festival attracts up to 55,000 visitors, involves 450 volunteers and employs over 350 local musicians.

The 30th Anniversary of the TD Halifax Jazz Festival will take place July 13 – 17, 2016.
