"With a London outpost of renowned NYC jazz club Blue Note finally opening this year, and the new-look upstairs space at Ronnie Scott's now welcoming audiences, it looks like 2026 could be a banner year for jazz in London. There are a number of jazz festivals happening throughout the year; the Montreux Jazz Festival is holding another residency at the Southbank Centre in March, the Brick Lane Jazz Festival is back in April, and the EFG London Jazz Festival returns in November."
"And jazz-themed events seem to be popping up all over town too, from floating jazz in St Kat's Docks to jazz brunches at hotels like The Athenaeum and St Pancras London to jazz sessions at restaurants like Brunswick House and Darby's. If you want to check out live music on your own time, there are even little jazz crawls you can do as there are a number of clubs and venues clustered around Dalston and Vauxhall."
