"Each year we work harder than the last to make the Tacoma Jazz Festival an exciting experience that brings the jazz and blues community together in a celebration of the rich culture and history of jazz and blues in the Tacoma area."

This year the Tacoma Jazz and Blues Festival has made a few improvements. The festival has traditionally been located downtown with various venues were spread over an area of five miles. This year, the Festival has moved to a new location that offers festival goers a more intimate experience by selecting an area that brings all the venues together within a two block radius on South Tacoma Way. South 54th and South 56th Streets will be blocked allowing free foot traffic and access to various food and craft vendors along South Tacoma Way. Additionally, the street will be covered with parachute canopies to provide shade from the sun.

Jonz Catering will man the beer garden this year and their "Thirst Responder" truck will be on site to aid your thirst emergencies.  

FREE parking is located behind the Stonegate Pizza and Rum Bar and along South Puget Sound Avenue.

Performances will take place throughout the day on four stages and venues located along South Tacoma Way. The all star main stage will be located outdoors near the South 54th Street entrance with stages also located within the festival area at the Stonegate Pizza and Rum Bar, and Dawsons. See the festival schedule on our website for more information.

The Main Stage will feature our blues and jazz acts from 1:30-9:30 p.m. and the clubs music begins at 2:00 p.m. and will continue until 10:00 p.m. The Stonegate and Dawsons will remain open beyond 10:00 p.m. to keep the party going.

General Admission ticket for the entire day with access to the beer garden and all the stages is $20 advanced purchase and $25 at the entrance on the day of the vent.
