JazzFest at Sea, one of the leading jazz cruises for ‘20’s – ‘40’s jazz, not only has amazing performances each evening of the jazz cruise, but also afternoon sessions on days at sea. Individuals are mixed and matched to create jazz sets not able to be seen or heard anywhere else.

“We get the very best jazz musicians to participate and I’m proud to have had a part in creating the great music we have on this jazz cruise every year,” says the great clarinetist Allan Vaché.

Also, the cruise features the JazzFest Jammers program every morning which is an opportunity for guests to bring their own instruments and jam with other guests and pros. This group is led by John Skillman and Mike Evans who also provide instruction upon request.
