Mostly Jazz Festival is the UK’s newest jazz festival and the only, open air, one site festival, exclusively dedicated to contemporary jazz, funk and soul.
Celebrating the dynamic grooves, innovation and excitement of the modern jazz movement; Mostly Jazz is about showcasing the diversity of contemporary jazz in all it’s forms. From avant-garde, free and modern jazz through to vocal, song based jazz, jazz-fusion and future jazz it’s also about considering jazz’s influence and relationship to other black music art-forms such as latin music, funk and soul.
For our inaugural year we have invited pioneering artists such as the Sun Ra Arkestra, Courtney Pine and Quantic and His Combo Bárbaro to perform alongside leaders of the new wave of British talent such as Polar Bear, Led Bib and Portico Quartet.
Directions: Moseley Park is situated just off The Alcester Road, Birmingham B13 8DD. The festival entrance is located just between Dixon’s Estate Agents and O’Neils Public House and opposite Somerfield supermarket.
The festival is only 2 miles south of Birmingham City centre and is best reached by bus. The No.50 bus runs very regularly from the Bull Ring.
