Saratoga Jazz Festival

Join us at the 49th Annual Saratoga Jazz Festival! 2 days, 2 stages, and 22 electrifying artists from jazz to roots, funk, blues, soul, rock, indie, and beyond.
Kick off summer with good times and great vibes — enjoy craft beer, a local food vendor village, a fine arts and crafts fair, family fun, and more! Pack the cooler, lawn chairs, pop-up tent, and any of your favorite festival essentials for an unforgettable weekend celebrating art, nature, and community on SPAC’s idyllic grounds.
This year’s headliners are R&B legend and “Godmother of Soul” Patti LaBelle and the New Orleans rock collective known for their triple-platinum hit “Wish I Knew You,” The Revivalists.
The 2026 lineup bridges legacy and discovery, presenting iconic arts alongside the next generation. The festival will bring together a dynamic mix of genre-defying artists, including blues guitar virtuoso Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, Afro-Cuban funk phenomenon Cimafunk, and hip, soul-inflected rhythm and blues band The Dip. They’ll be joined by jazz powerhouse vocalists Dianne Reeves and Cécile McLorin Salvant, contemporary and cutting-edge jazz leaders Terri Lyne Carrington and Lakecia Benjamin, Cuban piano master Gonzalo Rubalcaba, and many more!
The festival will also mark the 100th birthdays of jazz legends with two special performances: Miles Electric Band: Celebrating Miles Davis’s Centennial and Skidmore Jazz Institute Faculty All-Stars Celebrate John Coltrane’s Centennial.
