About Jazz In The City:

As Cape Town rolls into Jazz Week in March 2026, a new rhythm takes over the inner city. Jazz In The City 2026 reimagines what a jazz festival can be — deconstructing the traditional format and turning a six–block stretch of Bree Street into a one-night, walkable jazz circuit. For one night only, Bree Street — bordered by Castle Street and Wale Street — becomes the Bree Street Jazz Hop. Ten venues and pop-up performance spaces form a dynamic circuit of ticketed and free shows, encouraging audiences to move, explore, and curate their own experience.
