STATEMENT FROM BANDABANDA AGENCY AND THIS IS US EXPERIENCES. 📣

02/09/2026

To our Jazz Is Cool community,

After careful consideration and consultation with our production and technical teams, we have made the difficult decision to postpone this weekend’s inaugural Jazz Is Cool Festival due to the forecasted adverse weather conditions.

While we share in the disappointment, the safety of our artists, audiences, crew, partners, suppliers and everyone involved must always come first.

Jazz Is Cool was never only about a weekend of music. It is about building community, celebrating our culture, creating opportunities for artists and creating a space where people can come together through music.That vision has not changed.

We are currently working to secure a new festival date and will communicate it as soon as it is confirmed. Refund will are being processed by our ticketing partners.

To everyone who bought a ticket, every artist who committed their talent, every partner and supplier who has worked alongside us, and everyone who has believed in this vision thank you.

Your patience, understanding and continued support mean everything to us.
This is not the end of the story. It is simply a pause before we welcome you to the inaugural Jazz Is Cool experience under the right conditions.

We’ll see you soon.
