- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 16 Nov, 2025 at 06:00 pm – Sun, 16 Nov, 2025 at 08:15 pm
- **Event Description**: Founded in 1998, the Central Illinois Jazz Orchestra (CIJO) from Peoria is a seventeen-piece big band committed to keeping the big band jazz sound alive. Originally called the New Millennium Big Band, the CIJO is made up of professional and semi-professional musicians from the heart of Illinois that include music educators, business professionals, and full-time performers.

The group plays classic jazz charts from Count Basie to Stan Kenton and from Duke Ellington to Maynard Ferguson. Fronted by Dr. Todd Kelly from Bradley University, who also plays trumpet with the band, CIJO has quickly established themselves as one of the hardest swinging bands in the Midwest.
