About
In the heart of Blackburn, where the rustling leaves meet the soothing ripples of Blackburn Lake, an intimate musical experience awaits. Jazz at the Lake, a free jazz concert set against the tranquil backdrop of Blackburn Lake Sanctuary, promises to be a fusion of nature's beauty and the dazzling notes of jazz.
Jazz at the Lake is a family-friendly event, inviting music enthusiasts of all ages to share in the joy of live jazz amongst nature. From jazz enthusiasts to those looking to introduce their families to the magic of jazz, this event promises an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere for everyone. Attendees are encouraged to bring picnic blankets, lounge chairs, and settle in for an afternoon of classic jazz hits.
