This drive for musical excellence that attracts our audiences comes from the founder Bobby Hebert who is also a prominent bandleader and bass player in Canada.  He knows how to produce a great festival show consistently year after year.

The festival in cooperation with the City of Burlington is proud to offer this world-class event free of charge to all our attendees.

The cost of staging the festival is met only through the support of the Festival sponsors, the eco symposium participants, holistic practitioners, the arts and craft vendors and the variety of Festival healthy food vendors.  We invite people interested in joining to contact us online for more information.

The enthusiastic talented artists who perform each year and the hard work of the Festival volunteer teams have enabled the growth of the event into its stellar seventh season.

The Festival site can hold up to 50,000 people at one time and has a deep history in Jazz’n Blues music dating back to the 1940’s. when the famous Brant Inn, was located in the park.

The Inn hosted legendary artists like Duke Ellington and Count Basie. That history has imbued and enthused the City of Burlington to be a centre for music, musicians and music festivals in Southern Ontario we believe.

"This years line up is once again consistent with the musical artistry featured in previous years," says Bobby Hebert. This Festival is staged for the pleasure of all live music lovers worldwide. We welcome you to Canada and Burlington.

Nestled within the heartland of Canada, Burlington is located one hour north of one of the wonders of the world Niagara Falls and 39 minutes from fabulous Toronto. So there is much to see and do when you come to the Festival. The spectacular waterfront at Downtown Burlington and the views of majestic Lake Ontario offer an amazing backdrop for your live jazz'n blues music experience.  It doesn't get much better than this just different.

Along with the music program the Festival features an eco symposium, the fourth annual United Way Seniors Day, Holistic Health Fair, Arts & Crafts Showcase, Jazz'n Blues Garden Pub, Business Presenter Promenade, kids zone and the healthy foods of the world court. Lots to do by the Lake.  There is even a special Friday Night Midnight Madness Sale in the downtown-shopping district sponsored by the Burlington Downtown BIA.

The eco symposium features the latest companies and products to make our environment more sustainable.

If you are a live music fan make sure to mark your calendar to attend the JAZZ'N BLUES Festival in Downtown Burlington at third week of July. If you want special treatment you can purchase a VIP pass. The Festival needs your financial support.

On Saturday Night the Festival is planning to present one of the world’s Premier Blues artists WILD BILL MORGANFIELD.  He is the son of Muddy Waters and has followed in the footsteps of one of the icons in this genre of Blues Music.

We are also planning to announce the return of Johannes Linstead to close the Festival Sunday Night. Last years performance brought rave review to the 5000 fans that came to the park for his stellar performance. Johannes has promised a special performance for this years Festival.
