Liverpool International Jazz Festival 2020 will be the eighth edition of the Festival and will run from Thurs 27th Feb - Sun 1st March 2020. Featured artists include London based jazz collective Cykada (Thurs 27th Feb), Netherlands innovators Tin Men and the Telephone (Fri 28th Feb), boisterous Belgian iconoclasts Blow 3.0 (Sat 29th Feb), a double bill concert of groove related music from Martin Archer's Anthropology Band and Anglo-Swiss project Moonmot (Sun 1st March) and a final concert from saxophonist Tony Kofi on Sun 1st March, whose quartet's set will focus on his work with Ornette Coleman. 

Along the way there are support sets from up and coming bands, with a strong focus on original music, including sets from Yaatri (Leeds), Beyond Albedo (Leeds), Hippo (Bristol) and Blind Monk Theory? (Liverpool). On Saturday 29th Feb there will be a lunchtime concert produced in collaboration with Liverpool Hope University artistic partners Milapfest, focusing on music that fuses jazz and other styles with elements of Indian classical music.
