Who we are

Since 2022, the Kennett Jazz Fest has been Chester County's Premier Jazz Celebration.

Now, we’re turning up the volume.

In 2026, we’re evolving into the Kennett Jazz & Funk Fest—a fresh take on a fantastic event, blending the smooth sophistication of jazz with the high-energy soul of funk.

Our mission is to present an annual music festival that showcases exceptional jazz and funk artists, supports local talent, partners with community organizations, and fosters an environment where music can be experienced, celebrated, and shared by all.

And thru that mission, our vision is to make Kennett Square a destination for world-class jazz and funk, igniting passion, diversity, and connection through live music.
