Medicine Hat Jazz Society

Now celebrating its eleventh year, The Medicine Hat JazzFest has grown from a grassroots community-based event, to a widely recognized world-class festival that has taken its place alongside the other great jazz festivals in Western Canada.

Nestled along the beautiful South Saskatchewan River, Medicine Hat is a destination for tourists of all ages. With long, warm sunny days and a range of attractions, from the abundance of fine golf courses to the historic Medalta Pottery site, Medicine Hat and its friendly, western Canadian hospitality provides no end of entertainment for the entire family.

The Medicine Hat JazzFest features an eclectic mix of venues, running the gamut from our signature concert at the Downtown Bus Terminal Parkade to the intimate and quaint atmosphere of our late-night clubs.

Past performers include Jessica Williams, Patricia Barber, Kenny Werner, Renee Rosnes, Joey DeFransesco, Carol Welsman, Ryan Cohan, Andy Milne, The Shuffle Demons, The German Jazz Youth Orchestra, Beady Belle, Downchild Blues Band, Powder Blues, Maraca, Ivana Santilli, and Paulo Ramos.
