Such a broad category to cover! One of the great, often overlooked, American jazz festivals is the Cape May, New Jersey Jazz Festivals. World Class Jazz in Victorian Cape May. Over the past 27 Festivals, you would be hard pressed to name a major jazz figure that HASN'T performed or been honored there. Ten venues, dozens of events, hundreds of performers, thousands of jazz fans all together in America's First Seaside Resort each April and November. There's really nothing like it anywhere, and although small relative to the mega-festivals, the Cape May Jazz Festival has an intimacy and quality that brings back the traditional jazz club days when the interplay between the artists and the audience helped shape the music.
