Kaslo Jazz Festival

It’ll be another unforgettable weekend at this year’s Kaslo Jazz Etc Festival. Bands are making their way from around the world to play in the outdoor natural amphitheatre of Kaslo Bay Park. This festival fills the air with music every year on the August long weekend: this year July 30 through August 1. USA Today rated this festival as one of the top 10 in North America. 

The venue is breathtaking...mountains rising over 10,000 feet from the lake are the backdrop for the performers. Musicians entertain from a floating stage in the bay. The audience can watch and listen while reclining on the sandy beach, or even while swimming in the water around the stage.

This year’s the lineup of great music includes:

Circo de Teatro, Terminal Station, Melody Diachun, John Korsrud Septet, Bad Plus, Cheryl Hodge, Camilo Nu, Ehtrane, Tambura Rasa, Arsen Shomakhov, Spyro Gyra and many more. 

Food and craft vendors are on site at the park. You are welcome to bring your own picnic but no glass bottles will be allowed. Festival organizers are striving for a goal of zero waste, so vendors will be using all compostable plates and cups and recycling bins will be available.
