The Hopper Pass!

The Hopper Pass!
What a cool idea!
60 concerts for $75 bucks!

This is one sweet way to really maximize the Jazz Festival adventure without hitting up the bank manager for a major loan. I wish I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard someone say they’re going to some shows but would go to even more concerts if only they had the cash. That shouldn’t be a problem now.

But, besides the incredible value here, the outstanding feature of the Hopper Pass is the flexibility it allows to check out artists and bands not yet on the personal radar. Discovering new bands is a big reason to take in the Festival in the first place and with five venues—many within walking distance– it’s super easy to ‘hop around’ and catch all kinds of local, national, and international jazz, funk, improv, world music, and alt/indie groups layin’ down their thing.

Ever since the Jazz Festival started back in 1986 musical diversity and a hip vibe have been the main staples of the experience. The Hopper Pass is only going to make the experience even more exciting and memorable than it’s ever been. So Hoppers unite—get ready for some major music mashing!
