Budvar Cheltenham Jazz Festival has become an unmissable date in the jazz calendar due to its unique blend of British stars, one-off collaborations and the freshest new sounds. Up-and-coming young musicians sit alongside some of the jazz scene’s most influential and respected performers, and with more opportunities for dancing, wining and dining than ever before, the festival is a whistle-stop tour of the world’s finest jazz set to a stunning regency backdrop.
Not to be missed:
