BRACKNELL JAZZ brings some the UK's foremost jazz musicians to perform with a resident rhythm section at South Hill Park Arts Centre, a fine 18th century mansion set in rolling parkland. The gigs take place in the beautiful Recital Room, which boasts a superb Steinway model 'D' grand piano.
Bracknell Jazz takes place one Friday evening each month. The evening begins at 7:30 with a curtain raiser / warm-up band (usually featuring younger performers - please check here for details). The featured artist takes over from 8 pm. Tickets (currently in the £12 to £10 range) can be booked through the SHP Box Office. The Cafe Atrium (set on the terrace, with fine views of the grounds) serves bistro style meals. Drinks can be taken up to the Recital Room.

We also promote a parallel series of Bracknell Jazz YOUNG MUSICIANS gigs which take place either in the the Recital Room or the Cellar Bar on Wednesdays.
