We all know you are wondering what is going on at the 26th Annual Twin Cities Jazz Festival with the forecast this weekend.

happens RAIN or SHINE!

((except))

In the event of severe weather, we will work with City of Saint Paul officials to determine if we will delay or cancel activities in Mears Park. If we do make that determination, we will announce it on our website and through our social media channels. All of our indoor performances will go on as planned and you can still enjoy lots of great jazz music!!!

Please consider a donation to TCJS. We have been on pause due to life events and the Covid, but are alive and well and looking to 2021 to continue new missions. The priority is to continue the development of the Minnesota Jazz Hall of Fame for which the groundwork was laid with the first induction of Irv Williams before his passing. There are so many great performers and educators that need to be recognized. (Still a valid 501c3)
