More than a music event, the Merimbula Jazz Festival brings musicians together on the beautiful far south coast to play jazz, connect long-term friends, with the opportunity to make new ones through a shared love of jazz.
We’re not the only ones who think this is important. The Pambula and Bega Community Banks have once again, generously supported the Merimbula Jazz Festival's Jazz Quest and we are able to offer a a total prize money pool of $5000 for this event.
Jazz educator Saul Richardson of Jazz Workshop Australia said the Merimbula Jazz Festival was unique for its welcoming encouragement of young musicians. We encourage younger musicians to be part of the festival and delight in hearing their interpretations of works, old and new.
We value all our musicians and jazz lovers who come to enjoy Merimbula and hear a wide variety of jazz played over the June long-weekend.
We look forward to seeing you all return 6-9 June 2025!
