SAVE THE DATES FOR JAZZ 2010
Castries, Saint Lucia, September 22nd, 2009 - Saint Lucia Jazz will mark its 19th year of providing fans with unsurpassed musical quality in May 2010. Considered one of the Caribbean’s premier festivals, Saint Lucia Jazz attracts visitors from around the world who have enjoyed musical acts such as Wynton Marsalis and John Legend in a variety of unique locations around the island like Fond d’Or and Soufriere.
In 2010, the ten-day celebration will take place from May 1st to 9th beginning with fringe events and climaxing with a powerhouse four-day line-up performing May 6th to 9th on the main stage.
Visitors to the island at that time will be in for a two-for-one treat as Saint Lucia will be one of the host nations for the International Cricket Council’s World Twenty20 Tournament (ICC WT20). The two Group Stage matches will take place before the main stage shows of Saint Lucia Jazz with the Super 8s. The Semi Final matches take place in the week following Jazz.
As is customary, the exciting and diverse line-up will be announced by year end to allow patrons adequate time to book flights and accommodations.
Director of the Saint Lucia Tourist Board, Louis Lewis, remarks that, “the SLTB is working assiduously to ensure that patrons are treated to yet another exciting line-up next year. “
