The 30th Annual Cotati Jazz Festival kicks off at Noon on Saturday, June 19th. This years theme is Antiques, Pianos and Jazz, Oh My! and is FREE to the public. La Plaza Park will be the central gathering area with wine tasting, FOOD, beer, a bandstand and a dance floor. When you arrive, pull up a hay bale and join in the fun.
Although the main event takes place in La Plaza Park, jazz ensembles can be found at several venues within walking distance at nearby restaurants and clubs. The Cotati Jazz Festival will conclude at 7:00PM in the park, but you can expect the fun to continue at the Cotati Yacht Club, Spancky's Bar and Friar Tuck's Pub until the wee hours.
Six pianos that were hand painted and decorated by local non-profit organizations will be on display. The pianos have been sitting outdoors in front of Cotati businesses for the past month, begging anyone passing by to sit down and play. A special six piano performance is on the entertainment line-up for the event.
Dubbed the Biggest Little Jazz Festival In Sonoma County, you are sure to delight in this small town annual event. With free admission, the Cotati Jazz Festival is hard to pass up!
