Heading into Cork for the Jazz Festival, even for just a day? Here’s how to squeeze the absolute best out of it. 🎷

Start your morning in town with a good coffee and breakfast to fuel up for the day. By the afternoon, wander towards MacCurtain Street and St. Patrick’s Street where you might catch some free brass parades that take over and the street energy really kicks off.

In the evening, head indoors for a main stage gig at one of the key venues. To cap off the night, follow the music into late-night pub sessions along the Cork Heritage Pubs Jazz Trail or pop into hotel jazz clubs where live jam sessions keep going until late.
