Join us for the 10th Anniversary of the Charm City Django Jazz Fest, celebrating the genre created by Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli in the 1930s.

This year's festival will feature talented Hot Club bands from across the world, including a younger generation of virtuoso musicians who discovered this exciting style of music thanks to its growing popularity on YouTube.
