World-class artists and emerging talent delivering the best in jazz and musicianship

Each November the EFG London Jazz Festival brings a tremendous mix of homegrown and global talent to the Southbank Centre.

Since 1994 we’ve been a host venue for this annual festival, welcoming an incredible array of global artists such as Courtney Pine, Soweto Kinch, Jamie Cullum, Mica Paris, Ornette Coleman, Angelique Kidjo and Charles Lloyd.

Expect more big names, fresh discoveries and special collaborations when the festival returns to the Southbank Centre in November.
