The Gotham Jazz Festival is the culmination of all the events and musicians we work with throughout the year, and an amazing opportunity to hear many of your favorites in one place. We built the Festival for everyone, whether you want to sit and listen, or get up and dance! We return this year the the beautiful Downtown Association Club at 60 Pine St, which is a private social club from the Gilded Age of old New York City, same as our previous home at The Players Club… but significantly bigger!

The Festival is divided into two halves; you may purchase tickets for each half separately, or get a full day pass. The first half is more of a listening event (but one still has plenty of space to dance), and the second half is more like our larger parties (but you still can just listen)!

Following sold-out festivals, Prohibition Productions and New York Hot Jazz Camp have teamed up again to co-produce this amazing day of jazz!
