Jazzy, Jazz, Jazz Fest!

We’re just a few short days away from one of Saskatchewan’s best summer music festivals, SaskTel Saskatchewan Jazz Festival! The inaugural Saskatchewan Jazz Festival took place in the summer of 1987. Since it’s inception, Sask. Jazz Fest has become one of the largest festivals of its kind in Western Canada, bringing music fans the sounds of jazz, blues, funk, pop and world music over the course of 10 days.

This year’s festival promises to once again wow crowds and delight event go-ers with a stellar line-up. Johnny Reid, Walk Off the Earth, and Jann Arden are just a few of the names to grace the festival stages. Find more details on the full line-up as well as ticket prices and festival passes here!

Alongside the shows that require tickets, Jazz Fest is proud to host over 70 FREE shows! Boasting local, national and international artists, the free line-up is home to Saskatchewan’s own Graham Tilsley, Heidi Munro and many more!
