All-Canadian Jazz Festival

The All-Canadian Jazz Festival Port Hope has earned popular and critical -recognition as a showcase for the finest in Canadian jazz. As the Globe & Mail noted back in 2002, some Canadian festivals hire Canadian musicians because they can’t afford to bring in musicians from farther away. The All-Canadian Jazz Festival, by contrast, made a conscious decision to focus on the astonishingly diverse and talented Canadian jazz community.

Artists performing include Kellylee Evans, DK Ibomeka, Melissa Stylianou, Christopher Willes, Swing Rosie, Artie Roth and Diana Panton just to name a few.

Friday September 22 – Sunday September 24
