Mark your calendars for the Second Annual Carmel Jazz Fest returning this August.  Carmel Jazz Festival is a two-day festival featuring international, national and regional Jazz, R&B, and Blues acts across five stages. The festival includes beer, wine and food vendors. 

Friday, August 9 and Saturday, August 10, prepare to experience live music inside all three venues within The Center for the Performing Arts – The Studio Theatre, The Tarkington, and the world-renowned Palladium, as well as outside at Carter Green and at Feinstein's inside the Hotel Carmichael. 

This event goes from 5 to 10:30 pm both days. Musical acts include Average White Band, Tim Cunningham, Danny Lerman, Dave Bennett, Jazz bands from Indiana University, Butler University, Ball State University and the University of Indianapolis. 

The Carmel Symphony Orchestra also will be performing and will feature Antonia Bennett – daughter of legendary performer Tony Bennett – and a superstar in her own right. More acts will be announced as the event draws closer.
