Jazzfest

The Pensacola JazzFest, now in its 29th year, is a FREE all-jazz festival held in downtown, historic Seville Square. The Jazz Society of Pensacola (JSOP) produces the event with able assistance from a variety of corporate sponsors and individual donors. The 2-day festival, held in early spring each year, celebrates America's unique musical art form-Jazz.
