Nantwich Jazz, Blues and Music Festival returns in April with another stellar line-up of live acts and venues.
Full colour brochures are now available from the Crown Hotel and the other official venues.
They detail all the headline acts lined up for the main venues as well as those performers in “Around the Town”.
Top acts this year include Lucy Spraggan, The Bluetones, Thea Gilmore, Dodgy, Geno Washington and The Northern Soul Train who will grace the stage at Nantwich Civic Hall.
Nigel Stonier and Ed Tudor Pole will be performing in the Crown Hotel Ballroom.
And the “Around the Town” line-up is bigger than ever with new official festival venues and bands taking part.
Organisers are again supporting Nantwich Christie Hospital Support Group.
Christie volunteers will be out with collection buckets at The Civic Hall throughout the festival.
Donations will also be taken at The Bank Stage on Thursday Night at their Ultra 90 vs 2000s Event.
Nantwich News and our sister newspaper Nantwich Life have teamed up with organiser Abbi Ellwood at The Crown Hotel to publish the “Around the Town” listings for Friday, Saturday and Sunday (April 18-20) below.
Abbi is the daughter of Phillip Martin, who founded the festival back in the 1990s.
She took on the role of organising it each year following his death in 2018.
Abbi said: “It’s great to have Nantwich News on board to help us promote what promises to be the biggest and best Jazz Festival yet!
“We’ve had great support from all our official venues, and we have more this year than ever.
“There are so many great acts lined up over the five days, and we hope the town gets behind what should be a fabulous event.”
For more details of each act, and for Thursday and Monday’s listings, scan the QR code on the poster at the foot of this article and download the full festival brochure.
