14th Annual Markham Jazz Festival

The 14th annual Markham Jazz Festival will take place on August 19 - 21, 2011 starting with our ‘GALA at the Markham Theatre on August 19th. in the evening and then a free weekend of high-quality performances during the day and evening on August 20 and 21 on Main Street Unionville at the Unionville Millennium Bandstand as well as various other stages around town. To compliment the Main Stage events, "Hot Spots" (a variety of venues in Unionville and Markham) present fantastic jazz artists in a 'Street Festival and Concert Environment'. Festival attendees can wander from venue to venue, soaking up the party atmosphere, the jazz music, and the historic beauty of the villages of Unionville and Markham- a truly a magical experience.

The festival will highlight a large variety of music within the family of jazz. The festival committee has worked hard to recruit a wide range of diverse, interesting and well-known artists who will present jazz in all its forms.
