Swanage 2024 Secures Arts Council Funding

Swanage Jazz Festival has secured £16,225 funding from Arts Council England for its 2024 Festival and tickets will go on sale on Saturday 17 February.

Paul Kelly, Festival Chair said “We are delighted that Arts Council England has agreed to back the Festival. Our bid to the Arts Council was built on developing a programme to attract a new and younger audience through schools initiatives and also adding a second marquee on Sandpit Field for a new generation of Jazz groups.  This will add a vibrant extra layer to this much-loved Festival.”

Details of the full main programme line-up of around 50 bands will be publicised shortly.
