The Soho Jazz Festival is making a triumphant return from 10th to 14th September 2025, taking over 15 venues across London’s most historic jazz district. With a single all-access pass, visitors can experience 40 live shows and immerse themselves in the heart of Soho’s vibrant music scene.
This year’s festival celebrates a century of jazz and promises to be the most ambitious yet. With over 100 artists, 40+ gigs, and 15+ legendary venues, Soho transforms into a living jazz map, showcasing a spectrum of sounds from swing and Latin to blues, soul, hip-hop, and the UK underground.
For the past decade, producers Nathan Britton and George Hudson have positioned the event as one of Europe’s leading grassroots jazz celebrations, uniting rising talent and local legends in Soho’s storied streets. Festivalgoers can look forward to secret performances, spontaneous jam sessions, album drops, and exclusive live recordings, redefining what jazz means in 2025 and beyond.
Adding to the spectacle, a vintage double-decker bus will host mobile gigs, bringing live jazz straight to the streets. The festival also collaborates with Yamaha Music London and sE Electronics for in-store sessions, artist collabs, and cutting-edge sound experiences. For the first time ever, the festival launches the UK’s debut metaverse jazz club, taking Soho’s cultural heartbeat to a global audience.
Proudly supported by 1664 Blanc as the official beer partner, the festival also works alongside the Soho Business Alliance, the City of Westminster Council, and charity partner Help Musicians, through their mental health service Music Minds Matter. Tickets and passes are available now at www.sohojazzfestival.com.
