🌟Great Western Community Centre & the Aberdeen Jazz Festival  🌟

​

We're absolutely delighted to share that Great Western Community Centre will once again be a host venue for this year's Aberdeen Jazz Festival - and we have two fantastic Sundays of music lined up for you.

​

As many of you know, we are passionate about bringing high quality arts and culture right into the heart of our community and this year's programme does exactly that.

​

Sunday 15th March 7pm

Aberdeen Jazz Festival Orchestra

​

We're thrilled to welcome the Aberdeen Jazz Festival Orchestra, led by Richard Michael, for what promises to be an exhilarating evening of jazz and improvisation.

​

This special performance will unite top local youth ensembles in a  powerful fusion of talent, creativity and energy. Supporting young musicians and giving them a professional platform is something we care deeply about at the centre and this concert is set to be a real celebration of emerging talent alongside experienced performers.

​

If you enjoy vibrant sounds and the thrill of live improvisation, this is one not to miss.

Sunday 22nd March - Jazz the Day West (Afternoon Event)

​

The following Sunday we slow things down - just slightly- with Jazz the Day West, a relaxed community focused afternoon of live jazz.

​

As part of the wider Jazz the Day programme, this event brings music directly into the heart of the community, making jazz accessible, welcoming and enjoyable for all.

​

We're delighted to welcome:

​

• Aberdeen Jazz Festival House Band

• Zoe Downs Quartet

• Riya Sysa Duo

• Marisha & Jim Addison

• Albyn School Jazz Ensemble

• Tool Box Orchestra

​

And if you fancy something a little different, you can also unwind in our Vinyl Cafe, where you can relax and soak up the atmosphere between sets.

​

This afternoon is all about community - popping in, enjoying great music, meeting friends and experiencing the festival in a friendly and informal setting.

​

Tickets

​

Tickets for both events are available directly from the festival website:

​

We would love to see the centre full for both Sundays. Hosting the festival is a real privilege and it's a wonderful opportunity to showcase what community venues can offer - intimate welcoming spaces where live music truly connects people.

​

Whether you're a lifelong jazz enthusiast, or simply curious to try something new, you'll receive a very warm welcome at Great Western Community Centre.

​

We look forward to seeing you there.
