Cork gears up for Jazz Festival

Guinness is set to deliver the biggest ever jazz event in Ireland this October Bank Holiday Weekend (Oct 25 - 28), with a stunning music line-up, specially programmed to celebrate Cork’s 25th year of the festival.

Building on the festival’s huge domestic and international success of recent years, Guinness UDV Ireland has once again put together a programme full of big hitters – from the world’s No 1 jazz guitarist, John Scofield, to the internationally acclaimed jazz pianist, Brad Mehldau; from the legendary composer/performer Joe Zawinul to the powerful Cuban sounds of Gonzalo Rubalcaba.
