FREE FAMILY FRIENDLY AFTERNOON SET - UM Jazz Holiday Swing
Doors Open: 1:30 PM
Saturday, December 11 // Doors at 1:30 PM // Set begins at 2 PM // Free & Open to All
Along with the afternoon Family Friendly Swing Set at 2 PM, there will be TWO SETS of music at 5 PM and 8 PM. TICKETS FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL EVENING SET MUST BE PURCHASED SEPARATELY.
The 10th Annual Holiday Swing takes the event downtown with a fantastic location – the ZACC – and some new great additions. It will feature an internationally recognized woodwind artist Scott Jeppesen, along with auction items, special surprises, and holiday big band favorites!
"The folks at the ZACC do a magnificent job with creating a festive atmosphere and having such great bands and music makes for a wonderful jump start to the holiday season," said Rob Tapper, UM Director of Jazz Studies and Director of the UM/Buddy DeFranco Jazz Festival. "Having this event downtown will give this evening some sparkle and allows patrons to enjoy great food nearby, easy parking, wonderful music with some classic holiday big band jazz favorites – this should be a blast!."
Once again the family friendly “Holiday Swing Set” returns at 2 PM for younger children and families to enjoy great holiday music, snacks and dance in a shorter (45-minute) setting!
