About

Hamptons Jazz Fest, produced by The Jam Session, Inc, is a series of performances that bring world-class musicians in the fields of Jazz, Latin, and World music to a diverse cross-section of populations in the End End of Long Island, held in iconic venues throughout July, August and September. We also stage a Winter Series during the remainder of the year. We present dozens of concerts at no or low cost. We collaborate with other non-profit cultural organizations like OLA of Eastern Long Island, the Parrish Art Museum, The Church in Sag Harbor, East Hampton LTV, the Bridgehampton Childcare and Recreation Center, the Shinnecock Nation, and others to engage the diverse groups of the East End in our performance and educational events.
