2021 Virtual Jazz Festival
Sadly, the Festival committee was forced to cancel the 2021 Port Fairy Jazz Festival due to uncertainty surrounding covid restrictions. In light of this decision, the committee decided to host a virtual festival around the time the festival would otherwise have been held (mid February 2021). This enabled jazz fans, to keep in touch with their favourite bands’ music and possibly discover new acts.
36 jazz bands generously agreed to provide videos of their performances. These videos were accessed through the Festival website.
From feedback received, this was a success – clearly not as satisfying as attendance at a live festival, but it did enable fans to access some terrific performances.
Thanks and congratulations to the bands who provided performances – many of which were recorded under coronavirus lockdown conditions.
