The Inwood Jazz Festival is dedicated to uplifting jazz artists and the broader artistic community as they continue their post-pandemic recovery. Through dynamic live performances, we provide musicians with meaningful opportunities to regain financial stability while preserving the rich tradition of jazz. By bringing world-class music to Inwood, we create vibrant, inclusive events that celebrate cultural heritage, foster community engagement, and inspire the next generation of artists and audiences. More than a festival, we are a platform for artistic renewal, economic support, and the enduring spirit of live performance.  

This year's headliners include Elio Villafranca & The Jass Syncopators, IMANI Winds, Blood Brothers, David Kikoski Trio, Melvin "Tiger" Vines & Beautiful Journey.
