The Detroit International Jazz Festival is a major cultural institution,
providing year-round concerts and educational programming that
culminates in one of the world’s premier jazz festivals on Labor
Day Weekend. And it’s all FREE!

a Guardian of Jazz. Your contribution will help sustain our organization
and keep the festival free for years to come.
