WESTCHESTER’S FAVORITE JAZZ FESTIVAL RETURNS!

White Plains, NY (May 13, 2024) – JazzFest White Plains is back with performances by Grammy-winning stars and a food festival. Running from September 11 to 15, the five-day extravaganza highlights 18 captivating live performances spread throughout downtown White Plains. The artists range from emerging talents to world-renowned artists, including four Grammy Award-winners and nominees.

Headlining Friday night of this year’s festival is Nicole Zuraitis, the 2024 Grammy® Award-winning jazz singer-songwriter and pianist known for her unparalleled expressiveness and lyrical prowess. Headlining on Saturday is the Vijay Iyer Trio featuring Tyshawn Sorey and Linda May Han Oh, hailed by National Public Radio as “truly astonishing” and by the New York Times as “the great new jazz piano trio.”
“We’re thrilled to bring such exceptional talent to JazzFest White Plains this year,” said Kathleen Reckling, ArtsWestchester COO. “From soul-stirring vocals to innovative instrumental compositions, this festival promises to be a celebration of jazz in all its forms.” Several performances are free, including all the noon and the Sunday shows.

In addition to the stellar performances, the White Plains Jazz & Food Festival closes the weekend on September 15 from 12:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Mamaroneck Avenue between Main Street and Martine Avenue.
