Ealing Jazz Festival 2017

Ealing Jazz Festival is set to return to London’s Walpole Park with an exciting mix of world-renowned artists and local talent on 29–30 July. Celebrating the rich musical heritage of the area, the first wave of acts announced for this year includes the visionary saxophonist Courtney Pine CBE featuring neo-soul pioneer Omar MBE, Ghanaian guitarist and producer-come-arranger Ebo Taylor and 12-piece afrobeat, dub and jazz collective Nubiyan Twist. Founded in 1984, the Ealing Jazz Festival has been a mainstay of the borough’s summertime calendar for over 30 years, with last year’s event drawing in nearly 10,000 festival-goers. With its strongest line-up to date, 2017 promises to be another memorable instalment in the festival’s colourful history.
