Jazz on the Plaza - August 8th, 9th and 10th

BURLINGTON, ON

 

The Performing Arts Centre has been running the Jazz on the Plaza event for close to ten years.

For three days in August some of the coolest Jazz heard in the city is played on the plaza.

They recently added a cash bar.

If the weather doesn’t work – the event gets brought indoors – where the sound is just as sweet.

Seating ai always a problem.  There isn’t that much space on the plaza.  Shutting down part of Locust from Lakesgore up to a little above Elgin would do wonders for the audience size.

Maybe in the future.

The event is free – sponsors are now part of the how the costs are covered.
