Now in its 48th year, the UNC/Greeley Jazz Festival is the largest event of its kind in the nation, and brings together internationally recognized artists, jazz enthusiasts, award-winning clinicians, and student groups, including college, high school, and middle school big bands, combos, and vocal jazz ensembles. Each year thousands of participants enjoy main stage concerts, after-hours sessions, daytime performances, and educational workshops. This year’s festival will continue the long-standing tradition of bringing several of the most prominent names in jazz to Northern Colorado.
