The Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs announced today that the 43rd annual Atlanta Jazz Festival will not take place this year. The decision to cancel one of the country’s longest-running, free jazz festivals was based on the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the City of Atlanta, and the CDC and Georgia State guidelines limiting gatherings to 10 or less individuals.
​​​“While there will not be a festival this year, we were happy to be able to share 31 days of unique jazz performances by Atlanta artists throughout May, and will work to reschedule the Atlanta Jazz Festival for a future date that will ensure festival goers’ well-being and safety,” said Camille Russell Love, executive director of the Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs.
The Atlanta Jazz Festival would like to thank the Atlanta Music ProjectWJZA and PNC Bank for their support. Check the AJF website at www.atlantafestivals.com for information about the 2021 event.
