Fetauring musicians and bands from the USA, Spain, France, South Korea, Hungary, Poland, Holland, Czech Republic and Venezuela, it's no surprise that thousands of tourists and music fans from around the UK make their way to Birmingham each July to indulge in a rich selection of Jazz music. Presenting over 180 concerts in ten days, almost every show is free to the public, and crowds at the Festival are famously appreciative and lively.
