About the event

Wilson Jazz Festival
🎷 Wilson Jazz Festival – Year Three!
Now in its third year, the Wilson Jazz Festival continues its tradition of bringing sensational programming to the increasingly vibrant streets of Historic Downtown Wilson. At its heart, the festival is about community and accessibility—thanks to our generous sponsors, we’re proud to offer a full day of free events while keeping main stage tickets refreshingly affordable.

🎶 Bojangles Main Stage at Whirligig Park
The ticketed main stage features an incredible lineup, emceed by up-and-coming hip hop legend Daniel Hall (aka Brizzl):
Fatmouth
Peter Lamb and the Wolves
Sidecar Social Club
Tickets are just $30 in advance ($35 at the gate)!

🍹 Don’t miss the Harriss Hotel Drink Tent, serving some of the best drinks around to keep you refreshed all day.

🎉 Free Day Parties

🎺 Plus, stop by the Midsouth Roofing & Construction Jazz Jam Tent at The Lighthouse (corner of Goldsboro & Tarboro Streets), where performing musicians will welcome anyone with an instrument to join in for improv!

🥁 Second Line & After Party
