# Event Details - **Event Name**: Kelburn Jazz Weekend 2026 - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 02 May, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 12:00 am (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Free Your Mind… KELBURN JAZZ WEEKEND 2nd & 3rd May 2026 (Bank Holiday Weekend) Book Here: https://www.citizenticket.com/events/kelburn-arts/kelburn-jazz-weekend/ The Kelburn Jazz Weekend is a new one-off event on the early May bank holiday weekend that will be celebrating the new Scottish Jazz (and nu-soul) scene across two days and nights. Across 2 stages and various pop-up events we will be presenting a range of hot live music and DJs from the wide spectrum of music rooted in this foundational sound – headlined by the legendary tastemaker, broadcaster, label owner and DJ, Gilles Peterson, and Scotland’s hottest musical export for years, Corto.alto, who celebrate their new album on Ninja Tune with this event. With quality dining, bars, camping, glamping and top quality sound production, this will be a must-attend event for any forward-thinking music fan. Limited capacity - Weekend and Day Tickets available. FIRST PHASE LINE-UP: Gilles Peterson Corto.alto Rebecca Vastmant Kai Reesu Slow Karma Becca Sloan Plus loads more bands and DJs to be announced over 2 days and 2 stages. Since our earliest days, Kelburn has proudly showcased underground and emerging Scottish and international music outside of the mainstream, and many artists who have gone on to find success played early gigs at the annual Kelburn Garden Party. Jazz is the original DIY music, founded on the principles of total freedom of expression, collaboration and exploration – principles we whole-heartedly share. Unless you have been on Mars, you will have noticed the explosion of the UK jazz scene over the past decade or so, culminating in Ezra Collective winning the Mercury Prize in 2025. Scotland has not slept on this, with a clutch of artists also making international waves, many of whom will be appearing this weekend. And arguably the man who has had most to play in shepherding in this exciting new era is Gilles Peterson, a true empresario and arguably the most influential DJ and broadcaster in the world. It is our sincere pleasure to welcome Gilles and these artists to Kelburn for a one-off celebration of the music, the people and the vibe. Welcome to the Kelburn Jazz Weekend! Capacity is strictly limited and tickets are on sale now. We have a variety of family and group deals available. We will announce day splits with the full line-up in a couple months. Tickets are on sale now here, starting at £65.00 + BF for day tickets and £95.00 + BF for weekend tickets. Earlybird prices are available until the end of the year.
