New Bedford JazzFest (NBJF) proudly announces JazzFest 2024: Feel the Funk! on Saturday, November 23, from 8:00 10:00 pm. Doors will open at 7:00 pm. JazzFest 2024 will offer two live bands and the space for folks to groove and dance, as well as a cash bar and snacks available for purchase. New Bedford JazzFest is excited to host its event in its newly renovated venue, the historic Steeple Playhouse, located at 159 William Street in downtown New Bedford.
General admission tickets are $25 in advance, (until November 15) and $35 from November 16 until 2 hours before the doors open on November 23. All tickets are available at newbedfordjazzfest.com or steepleplayhouse.org. The festival takes place rain or shine, as it is indoors. The building is completely accessible to all, and there is free parking on the street, as well as in the adjacent parking lot and Elm Street Parking Garage.
This year's headliner is the Brian Thomas and the BT Allstars featuring Melissa Bolling. The New England based band delivers a fast-paced, power-packed feast that they dub Big Band Funk.
Opening the show will be Joaquim Santos and The Dope Lotus, who will fill the dance floor with distinctive soulful vocals and tight funky grooves, all grounded in authentic musical roots. General admission seating will be available behind the dance floor.
