The Rubber City Jazz & Blues Festival brings these music genres to the community. Although the festival has featured world-renowned artists, a major focus is to platform the talent from the Akron-metro area.

These performances are free, usually with the exception of the headliner’s performance. Tickets for that are available online.

The venues where visitors can see the musicians are:

  • BLU Jazz+
  • Akron Main Library
  • Akron Art Museum
  • Mustill Store Museum
  • High Street Stage
  • Musica
  • Circle of 5ths
  • The Knight Stage
  • Jilly’s Music Room
  • Baxter’s Speakeasy

The full line-up is available online, on the website, or on the Facebook page.
