Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival 2021

From the festival's beginnings in 1978, the artistic policy has been to concentrate on musical excellence and to champion spontaneous creativity and music making in Edinburgh. These virtues have been developed in the 21st Century with the production of a wide range of new music, the establishment of the Edinburgh Jazz Festival Orchestra, and an on-going commitment to supporting Scottish musicians to realise creative ideas, and to link with international musicians. Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival has also grown its world outlook, presenting high quality musicians from all over the world.

Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival is back for 2021 with an exciting programme showcasing the amazing music coming out of Scotland! The Festival is delighted to welcome some small, socially-distanced audiences to Assembly Roxy over the ten days of the festival- for 20 concerts with live audiences. All of the live concerts will also be live-streamed so, if you can't make it in person, you can buy a digital ticket. In addition to the live concerts, there are also 20 pre-recorded online concerts. All online content is available for 72 hours so you can watch at your leisure!
