Galway Jazz Festival 2018

About this event

Galway Jazz Festival 2018 has over 50 events - Local, National and International across 20 different venues.

Who knows what the relationship between Ireland and England will be once Brexit becomes a reality. It's possible that visas will be required for UK musicians to come here and vice versa. We're taking the opportunity to present an incredible cross-section of the very best of UK Jazz just in case!

We'll also be presenting a panel discussion to discuss the possible outcome and discuss how best we can mitigate against any negative outcomes.

Artists confirmed for 'Brexit Schmexit' at GJF18 are:

Liane Carroll, Ashley Henry, Huw Warren, World Service Project, Poppy Ackroyd, and Steve Davis & Kavus Torabi...

The festival highlights include Masterclasses, a film screening, a swing dance night, jam sessions, solo performances, large ensemble performance, poetry, panel discussion, a youth ensemble workshop and much much more in between.

Welcome to the Galway Jazz Festival 2017. I am proud to be part of a team once again presenting a festival of the highest quality here in Galway. There are over 40 events - Local, National and International across 20 different venues.
