Riverfront Jazz brings to Greenwich a feast of live jazz performance. Whether you wish to hear a local trad band in a cosy Thames-side pub or be enthralled by world-class Jazz supremos in a plush theatrical setting, this annual 10-day jazz fest should be a highlight in your diary. Now in it’s 19th year, this year’s theme is 'Where East meets West' - where better than the home of the Meridian Line.

The Riverfront Jazz issue of THE GUIDE lists all events including specials at The Trafalgar Tavern, the evening Jazz Cruise and over 100 other performances can be picked up at participating venues and Greenwich Tourist Information Centre.
