The Museum of Garden History and Capital Gardens Limited are proud to present a series of JAZZ NIGHTS in the Museum's garden.

You'll have the chance to enjoy these fabulous sounds in the open air, in some beautiful surroundings, and relax with a drink as the sun goes down.

A wonderful range of music from Latin and Big Band to more mainstream jazz sounds has been selected. All of the musicians performing are also taking part in the annual Jazz on the Streets Festival in London. Details of the bands are below.

The Museum is just 10 minutes walk from Waterloo station and is within easy access of Westminster.

COME AND ENJOY SOME DISTINCTIVE SOUNDS IN A VERY DISTINCTIVE SETTING.

In the event of bad weather, the performances will take place inside the Museum.
