"India News Calling"

The Annual Jamaica International Ocho Rios Jazz Festival dates back to 1991 when it was first started as an experimental one-day event called the Ocho Rios Mini Jazz Festival. The famous musician and journalist Sonny Brandshaw, a jazz pioneer, produced and directed the festival. The main reason to start the festival was to redefine the musical scene of Jamaica and to provide entertainment and an enjoyable atmosphere for families. With that in mind, Father's Day was chosen for the event. The festival was first held in Carib Inn Beach of Ocho Rios under the byline Greatest Names in Jamaican Jazz. Within a span of three years the event grew from one to eight days and became the Caribbean’s complete jazz vacation.

The festival features some of the greatest names in jazz. This year’s line up will include Joe Sizemore and Friends, Pie Grande, Pat Braxton and Niki Walters performances.The festival organises community concerts, exhibitions and also boasts Youth Programs. It has established Jazz Hall of Fame Awards which recognises Jamaican and Caribbean musicians who have contributed to the art and distinguished themselves internationally.

In addition to the visitor's search for sun, sea and fun in June, the Ocho Rios Jazz Festival offers the unique cultural cross-fertilisation of musicians, painters, artistes, Jamaican art & crafts and jazz for the youth.
