Jazz Director’s Intro
– Neil Hughes
The bar’s set high for jazz in Buxton and we’re already looking ahead for another incredible Festival in 2025. Get ready to tap your feet, feel the energy and enjoy the live music – it’s good for your soul!
I’m delighted to be planning my fourth jazz series at Buxton International Festival. We’ve had so many great live performances in the last few years, and so many sell-outs, and we aim to repeat those highs. Thank you for your continued support.
Once again, we will continue to take advantage of the amazing facilities on offer in Buxton by using the Palace Hotel, the Pavilion Arts Centre and Buxton Opera House as our main venues. These are all within close proximity of each other and the town’s many fine cafes and restaurants. The atmosphere in Buxton is an incredible thing to be a part of during the Festival. There’s a warmth and friendliness about the place that’s hard to beat.
Jazz at The Palace
If you prefer the intimacy and the darkness of the traditional jazz club, welcome to Jazz at the Palace, where you are up close and personal with the performers. The set-up at the Palace Hotel works brilliantly; sit back, have a beer or a whisky, and relax as we bring you an incredible selection of live music.
Following the opening jazz weekend, we again will have some wonderful concerts amongst the operas, books and music events during the following two weeks.
I’m looking forward to making more announcements very soon!
