How to get your gig added to the Gig Guide

At present gigs are added to the calendar by a small team of volunteers and friends of Jazz Yorkshire.

We will endeavour to get your gigs added as soon as we can but it is recommended to send them over as early as you can as it might take a few weeks to get them into the guide.

It helps if you can include website links for the artist and promoter as this helps people when they want to find out more about your gig.

It will also be quicker if you can send a Word or RTF document with the details rather than just sending a printed flyer

new feature - residencies

The Gig Guide now includes pub and club gigs which take place on a weekly basis. If you organise or know of a pub gig which should be added please let us know.

Email address

Email to: listingsATjazzyorkshire.org (replace AT with @) or as an alternative cut-and-past details into the contact page form

Check List

Here is a Check List for the information we would like to receive:

  • Date or Day of Week if an ongoing residency
  • Artist / Band
  • Style of jazz - if nothing suitable please let us know and we will add an extra style
  • Artist / Band website
  • Name of Promoter
  • Promoter website
  • Promoter or venue contact phone number,
  • Venue where taking place
  • Venue Website - if applicable
  • Venue address and post code
  • Prices (full and concessions)
  • Door opening and start time
  • Information about gig or performer i.e. biography of artist
