Vincent Ector Pasquale Grasso Benny Green Jon Hamar Lafayette Harris, Jr. Tamir Hendelman Tim Horner Matthew Parrish Ted Rosenthal Kenny Washington Peter Washington Martin Wind

Get to Know Your 2023 Lineup

The Jazz Cruise is the first and only full-ship cruise charter dedicated to “straight-ahead” jazz. After more than two decades of producing the best jazz-only festival in the world, The Jazz Cruise is hailed by both the musicians and guests as Jazz Heaven.

For those of us who have experienced this 7-day, 7-night presentation of jazz magic, we simply call it…The Jazz Cruise!
