Thank you for your ticket purchase for the 2023 NYC Winter Jazzfest! We will be in touch very soon with more festival details, lineup announcements, pass pickup instructions and more. 

We cannot guarantee you entry into any one venue or seating once inside, so if you intend to see a specific set we recommend you plan your night accordingly and arrive early. Our venues vary in size and many have limited seating areas. We do encourage that if you find yourself in a long line that you consider hopping over to a nearby venue where there is space. The Winter Jazzfest Marathon experience is very much about discovering new music and we can guarantee that if you journey with open ears you will enjoy wherever you end up. Winter Jazzfest tickets are non-refundable.

Covid-19 Policy

We follow all current NY State, NYC and CDC guidelines. Masks are encouraged but not required at most venues. To see individual venue information please visit https://www.winterjazzfest.com/FAQ . We will continue to monitor regulations to inform our policy and keep events as safe as possible for our fans, artists, and staff.

We are pleased to partner with Tree-Nation to help reforest the world and offset our festival carbon footprint. We invite you to launch a profile and begin seeding your own forest at Tree-nation.com

Diversity & Inclusivity 

From jazz’s Black American roots we celebrate the diversity of this music, and inasmuch NYC Winter Jazzfest seeks to showcase musicians of all backgrounds – across race and ethnicity, gender, sexuality, bodily ability, and more – as well as all disciplines within the umbrella we call “jazz”. Our audience is similarly diverse, boasting fans avid and new, local and international, industry professionals and those who just love to listen. We believe our diversity is our strength. 

Accessibility 

NYC Winter Jazzfest works to share our musical offerings in venues that are accessible – both for those with assistive mobility devices like wheelchairs and for those with other sorts of accessibility needs. This value is constantly in process as we seek to partner with accessible venues across the city. 

Feel-Good Space for All  

Winter Jazzfest is designed to be a feel-good space – a place to convene, to take pleasure in each other’s company and the music we all love. To do this we count on safety for all who take part in the event – from the performers and patrons to the staff of the venues that host us. We seek to develop a Safer Space, one in which all people feel valued and respected. As such, and in alignment with the We Have Voice Collective, we have a zero tolerance policy for harassment of any kind. We uphold the equitable treatment of all people regardless of their various identities including race/ethnicity, gender, sexuality, age, ability, culture, immigration status, economic background, or religious beliefs. We ask that you join us in supporting the safety and wellness of all NYC Winter Jazzfest performers, staff, and audience members so we all can do what we do best – enjoy the music.  

Stay tuned, more to come! 

Grateful for your support,

WJF Team
