Long Beach, CA – (July 12, 2017) – It’s the most consistent, the most upscale, and the most celebrated family-produced jazz festival in Southern California.

For over 2 decades, the #LBJazzFest has been a trailblazer consistently refining the essence of a premier jazz festival beyond celebrated artists and mellow ambience.
