Jazz Picnic

Good vibes. Great music. Glorious Sunday.

Winter got you feeling a little... bluesy? Jazz Picnic is your ticket to a chilled-out afternoon of smooth tunes, tasty treats, and good vibes for all ages.

Pack the picnic rug, round up the kids, grandparents, and the neighbours, and head to the grassy lawns of Munro Martin Parklands for a fun-filled afternoon and evening of live jazz.

Set in the lush surrounds of Munro Martin Parklands, this smooth-swingin’ Sunday sesh features a stellar lineup of jazz legends, tasty eats, and family-friendly feels. Whether you're a swing dancer, a finger-snapper, or just here for the sunshine and saxophones, you’re in the right place.

Here’s how your Sunday will swing: The afternoon kicks off with some of our talented local jazz musicians to set the mood.

Next up, the soulful sounds of the Emma Pask Trio will have you swaying on your picnic rug.

Then, Australia’s own jazz legend, Vince Jones Quintet, takes things up a notch with his signature swingin’ style.

And to top it all off, Cookin’ On 3 Burners bring the funk to wrap up this feel-good day in the park.

Think gourmet hampers, food vans, cold drinks from the licensed bar, and a park full of people vibing to world-class jazz.

BYO picnic rug or chair, and your best jazz hands.

Let’s turn this Sunday into a jazzy afternoon and evening that hits all the right notes
