Old Webster Jazz & Blues Festival |
September
23rd
Festival Begins at 12:00 noon
Why Come? One of the most family-friendly jazz festivals
on the planet, the Old Webster Jazz Festival is housed in historical
charm that promises non-stop jazz. Ten miles southwest of St.
Louis, the site combines family and audible art free of charge.
From rockin’ Blues to Big Band, and from New Orleans Zydeco
to Swing, two stages at the award winning event feature a fresh
lineup of the best in St. Louis classics. The jazz fest also
offers free parking, a free jazz workshop (10-11:30am), and
a free bag of Switzer’s Licorice to the first 6,000 fans.
The entire community is involved as hip kids show other young
hip kids that jazz is cool. Don’t miss Billy Peek, Webster
University Jazz Band, Erin Bode, Gumbohead, Uncle Albert, USAF
Shades of Blues Jazz Ensemble, Swing Cat Swing, Anita Rosamond
and more! Savor diverse food and drink along with a gallery
of fine art. Street entertainers amuse spectators with fire
eating, juggling, and balloon blowing clowns. Bring your kids,
strollers, and dogs for a day of celebration, education, and
commemoration.
