After the trials and tribulations of the Covid era, the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival is very much back on track, as evidenced by the launch on Tuesday evening of the programme for its 2022 edition.
The long-running festival was cancelled in 2020, and while last year’s hastily-assembled event drew thousands to the city, this is the first time since 2019 that organisers have been able to put on a full programme.
