32nd Annual Atlanta Jazz Festival – May 23-24, 2009

Based on the photo above there has been a number of years where the annual jazz festival didn’t take place. There was talk in December that there was not going to be a Jazz Festival in Atlanta this year. Refusing to let the music die, the City of Atlanta Office of Cultural Affairs is inviting everyone to come and enjoy the 32nd Annual Atlanta Jazz Festival, Memorial Day Weekend, May 23rd – 24th, in Historic Grant Park, Atlanta.

The Atlanta Jazz Festival, an annual musical showcase, celebrates jazz legends and up-and-coming jazz greats in venues throughout metro Atlanta during the month of May and culminates in a music festival on Memorial Day Weekend. It is the mission of the Atlanta Jazz Festival to expose and entertain a diverse audience of jazz aficionados, young jazz enthusiasts and musical artists to the rich heritage and variety of jazz as an authentic form of traditional music. At its peak in 2007, the Atlanta Jazz Festival had an attendance of over 300,000 and contributed over $20,000,000 to the economy of Atlanta and the State of Georgia.
