The 2026 Newport Jazz Festival

May 2nd, May 3rd

​​

We are back!  -  for the sixth Festival. Two days of Trad, Swing, Bebop, Boogie, Bossa, Blues and beyond, bands ranging from intimate trios to bold and brassy Big bands, with everything in between, all in the Newport cultural precinct, and centered round our biggest supporter - The Newport Bowls Club. 

​

This year, we are presenting over 40 Bands in the four most popular venues - and in addition to the ever popular headline bands, we will be featuring  locals from the Western suburbs, bands from the Melbourne Jazz Jammers sessions, artistes from interstate and the pick of the performers from Jazz Festivals across Victoria.

​​​

​

 We will soon be looking at bands for Newport Jazz Festival 2026, at the beginning of May. Are you free?
