Performance Information

Poncho_sanchez_2006 Tickets go on sale May 1; stay tuned for a detailed performance schedule (mainstage schedule at end of this post).

At its core, Jazz Port Townsend is a weeklong workshop where people from all over the world come to live and learn with some of the finest jazz musicians playing today.

Starting on Thursday, and running through Sunday, we hit the lights and the renowned artist/faculty take to the stage for mainstage performances in Fort Worden State Park's WWI-era McCurdy Pavilion, and for club performances in Port Townsend's historic downtown and uptown districts.
