Jazz at the Rotunda
Summer is a picnic spot under the shade with family and friends listening to the wonder of live jazz and blues. The longest running annual jazz and blues event in Auckland, Jazz at the Rotunda draws concert-goers far and wide to the heart of Auckland.
Taking in some of the finest jazz and blues artists on Sunday afternoons has become an event that Aucklanders and its visitors eagerly look forward to in summer. We advise you arrive early before the crowds and stake out your favourite picnic spot before the concert starts.
Exciting new talent feature in the support acts before the main performance gets underway. This year Auckland Council and Music in Parks will present 16 concerts set in the iconic Auckland Domain Band Rotunda and are also staging performances at the Tamakae Reserve in Waiuku and Puhoi's idyllic Band Rotunda.
Wild Bean Cafe will be at theses events for purchase of coffee and selected food items from the menu.
