Jazz at the Bolt, now in its fifth year, has become an annual treasure in Burnaby, British Columbia: a music festival that celebrates diversity, community, and jazz music. With multiple stages running across two days at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts, music lovers will take in all the artists on offer while spending time in a welcoming community. Hanging out with old and new friends is as much a part of the festival as the music!
