The 30th edition of the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz and Blues was staged over the weekend, albeit via online events.

For the first time in its 30-year history, the festival was presented digitally due to Coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions, in an extended 7-day format.

Audiences enjoyed exceptional performances from some of Australia’s premier jazz and blues artists, in a program that featured new commissions and collaborations, never before seen archival footage, an exclusive international appearance and the prestigious National Jazz Awards.
