Madison Square Park, NYC(5th Ave. Bet. 23rd & 25th St.)

 

The NoMad Jazz Festival makes a triumphant return to Madison Square Park. Join us on the Oval Lawn for New York City’s newest jazz tradition, produced by The NoMad Alliance in partnership with The Jazz Gallery, Flatiron NoMad Partnership, and Madison Square Park Conservancy.

 

The festival brings together internationally acclaimed artists, emerging talent, students, local businesses, and audiences of all ages for a week of performances across NoMad. Festival Week features free performances throughout the neighborhood from August 2–8 at restaurants, retail stores, public spaces, and cultural venues. The celebration culminates with two days of free mainstage performances in Madison Square Park on Friday, August 7, and Saturday, August 8.

 

From intimate neighborhood performances to world-class concerts, the NoMad Jazz Festival showcases the creativity, diversity, and community spirit that define both jazz and NoMad.
