Limerick Jazz Festival 2024 runs from Thursday September 26th to Sunday 29th and once again presents the cream of Irish and international talent across the city.
Supported by the Arts Council and Limerick City and County Council, this year’s festival lineup has a particular focus on young Irish and international artists. Headline acts include the award-winning young British saxophonist Emma Rawicz, Irish guitarist Chris Guilfoyle with his band Oxygen Thief and vocalist Aleka, along with Vienna-based guitarist Andreas Varady who makes a welcome return to Limerick where he started his musical career. Other highlights include US composer and saxophonist Benjamin Boone and a Brazilian Music Night with Kasia Eliasz and Her Band. Our headliners will be performing at the Belltable Arts Centre and Dolan’s on the Dock Road.
This year’s festival sees the revival of the Jazz Fringe, with many free events showcasing local musicians (including players from the Limerick Jazz Workshop) on Saturday lunchtime in venues across the city centre including Lucky Lane, Steamboat Music, the George Hotel and the Terrace, Dolans.
John Daly, Chair of Limerick Jazz Society, said: "We are delighted to be presenting many stars of the future in our 13th Limerick Jazz Festival. With fringe events popping up in even more venues across the city, we're reaching out to every music lover. Our heartfelt thanks go to the Arts Council and Limerick City and County Council for making this possible." Get ready for a celebration of rhythm, melody, and soul at Limerick Jazz Festival, as we celebrate the richness and diversity of jazz in 2024!
