We are one of the oldest jazz clubs in the world. We opened in 1959 and since that time have featured most of the legendary and popular names in modern jazz and jazz fusion. The club officially reopened on Monday 26th June 2006, after 3 months of refurbishment.
Main Jazz Club (downstairs):
We're a live venue so you need to book tickets in advance to come and see a show. Once you're inside, we allocate you seats and then you can order food and drinks (to be paid for on the night) from your seats. There's table service throughout the whole show.
Food & Drinks menus available here.
Ticket prices depend on seat allocation. You can take a look at the section plan here.
If a date is not available on the schedule, that means that it hasn't been released yet. Keep an eye on our website or join our newsletter to be notified when new dates are released.
