Instruments on a Bray Jazz Festival stage in 2010

Bray Jazz Festival is an Irish jazz music festival that takes place in Bray, Ireland, on the May bank holiday weekend. The 22nd such festival took place in May 2023.[1]

Bray Jazz was established in 2000 with part-funding from Ireland's 'Millennium Fund'.[2] Although boutique in scale, Bray Jazz has featured a number of leading jazz and world music players from Ireland and elsewhere.[3][better source needed] The festival has been described by The Irish Times as "the connoisseur's jazz festival", and as "one of the very best small jazz festival's in Europe" (All About Jazz).[2][4]
