About Jamaica Jazz and Blues

 

Each year Turnkey Productions Limited invites you to spend one fabulous week on the North Coast of Jamaica enjoying the premier music festival in the Caribbean, the Jamaica Jazz and Blues, still leaving you with enough time to laze on pristine white sand beaches, swim with the dolphins, careen through a rain forest high above the trees, or marvel at the elegance and reverence of beautiful historic architecture.  Jamaica Jazz and Blues is more than a music festival, it’s a one-of-a-kind experience that brings together thousands of friends and family for one week of pure pleasure and relaxation.
 
The festival comes alive at 4 pm each day delighting you with the best in Jazz, Blues, Reggae, R & B, Soul, Latin and World music.  Its rich potpourri of musical genre is complemented by delicious Jamaican food, art, craft, and sprinkled with the element that makes Jamaica so special, its people.

As a part of the development of our 15th anniversary celebrations, we would love to hear about your favourite Jamaica Jazz and Blues experience.   

 Faced with the need to increase the numbers of passengers traveling to the island, Allen Chastenet, the then Vice President of Air Jamaica envisioned an event which would solve his problem by encouraging visitors to come to Jamaica.
