One of the Caribbean’s most idyllic islands, Saint Lucia is renowned for its sparkling shorelines, coral-filled waters and lush green mountains. Its spectacular natural landscapes aside, this coveted island also shines with its vibrant cultural heritage, and nowhere else is this displayed as colourfully as during the annual Saint Lucia Jazz & Arts Festival.
This year, between April 30 and May 12, Saint Lucia will sparkle with added zest as the Jazz & Arts Festival 2024 commences. Taking place across three vibrant venues – Mindoo Phillip Park, Pavilion on the Ramp – Rodney Bay and Pigeon Island National Park, this eagerly anticipated event will welcome talented musicians from across the Caribbean and beyond to come together and create a magical atmosphere of toe-tapping, hip-swaying sounds beneath the glowing Caribbean sun.
Feel the irresistible rhythms of Afro beats, jazz, gospel, soca, calypso, reggae and more as you gather with travellers and locals alike to experience this essential fabric of Saint Lucian culture, tucking into sumptuous street food and enjoying a tipple or two of island-distilled rum and ice-cold beer. Furthermore, you can take part in a range of exciting cultural activities, explore art exhibitions and culinary events, see electrifying dance performances and browse beautiful craft markets for a Saint Lucian souvenir.
Established in 1992 to highlight Saint Lucia’s exciting cultural tapestry, the Jazz & Arts Festival has since grown in stature and is now regarded as one of the finest, most exciting festivals throughout the Caribbean – high praise indeed in a region renowned for its musical and cultural heritage.
