Jazz festival's new home

T​HE countdown to the Cleethorpes Jazz Festival has begun – and early bird tickets are now available.

Each year the successful weekend attracts music lovers from across the country.

Organisers have succeeded in securing funding from the Arts Council, and with further support from North East Lincolnshire Council, this year’s festival is moving to a new weekend – and a new home – with new bands, but the same high quality.

Having linked with North East Lincolnshire’s Arts Forum Festival, the event will now be taking place at Cleethorpes Memorial Hall from Friday, July 2  to Sunday, July 4.

The venue has been chosen to host the festival this year as a larger audience is anticipated and there will be room to hold other events, such as workshops.
