There will be bars and food available on site and there are various cafes and restaurants just a short walk from City Hall.
The Newcastle light rail can quickly transport patrons from nearby hotels and parking areas to the City Hall.
The diverse range of music includes trad, mainstream and contemporary jazz, big bands, swing, blues, a jazz vocal group and jazz/boogie piano.
Dance floors in the Concert hall, Banquet and Hunter rooms, will cater for those who like to move to the music.
Performers include:
Canberra’s Zackerbilks; The Swing Kings; Andrew Dickeson’s Blues Rhythm Swing Band; brilliant clarinettist Andy Firth; Guitarist Adam Miller; Steve Edmonds Jazz and Blues Band.
Entertainer extraordinaire, Ami Williamson; Sinatra Swing with Mitch Capone and the Andy Firth Orchestra; traditional Jazz -Gospel with Lee Gunness and the Geoff Power Jazz Band; The Dungeon Big Band: Newcastle Women’s Jazz Band and the ever-popular jump-jive-jazz from Fish Fry, and by request, Caroline Packer’s “Stompin’ Rhythm Aces”.
This indicative line-up demonstrates the choice festival patrons will have.
