ABOUT US
Hertford Jazz Limited is a non-profit company limited by guarantee, run by volunteers led by Chris Dixon (host of the monthly Hertford Jazz Jam at the Hertford Club) and generously supported (thank you!) by Hertford Town Council's Community Grant programme, local sponsors and venues. After credit card fees and venue or equipment hire where required, all ticket revenue goes to the performers. Any money left in the pot at the end of the festival will be retained for the following year, with a proportion donated to our chosen charity which for 2025 is Parkinsons UK.
JAZZ FESTIVAL
Hertford Jazz Festival 2025 ran from 12th June to 16th July in venues around Hertford, with performances from top-class bands and singers. We're hoping to do it again in 2026, and meantime put on a few decent gigs from time to time.
JAZZ JAM
There'll also be jazz jams, where anyone with a basic grasp of the jazz idiom can join the house band, so bring your instrument, drumsticks or voice and join the groove/fun/chaos.
GETTING HERE
Hertford has two train stations, a bus station and plenty of parking. Maps and directions can be found on the venue pages.
