The longest continually running annual jazz-related event worldwide, the Monterey Jazz Festival anticipates drawing a crowd of nearly 40K participants this year. A 3-night celebration featuring over 500 artists on 8 stages, this year’s festivities are sure to be spectacular. If you aren’t listening to Jazz under a star-filled sky, we hope you have an opportunity to enjoy a stunning Indian Summer sunset this weekend. Below please find a recap of our subject regions:
