A Celebration Twelve Years in the Making
​Jazz should be celebrated every day. While we’ve just wrapped up a monumental Jazz Appreciation Month and International Jazz Day, there is no better time than now to officially announce our upcoming gathering.
​It’s time to mark those calendars and clear your schedules. We are making it official, and we want YOU there to help us set the vibe.
After twelve years of growing together, it’s time to take this brotherhood and sisterhood to our island!
​📅 The Details
​When: Sunday, August 9th
​Where: Flynn Pavilion, Belle Isle
​Time: 1:00 PM – 7:00 PM
​🌳 Why This is a Milestone
​For twelve years, we have been more than just a group; we’ve been a massive, soulful family. We have spent over a decade curating our collective soundtrack and chronicling the scene through countless records, videos, and local events. We’ve supported the legends and the rising stars from the sidelines, and now it’s time to truly come together in person.
​There is something powerful about all of us crossing the Belle Isle bridge to gather at the Flynn Pavilion. Let’s let the spirit of the city and the natural rhythm of the water surround us as we break bread and honor twelve years of building this incredible community.
​This isn’t just a cookout—it’s a tribute to the rhythm and the people who keep the spirit of Detroit Jazz alive.
​✨ What to Expect
​The Soundtrack: A curated atmosphere featuring the finest Detroit Jazz to keep our souls fed.
​The Connection: A chance to finally put faces to names, share stories, and celebrate our history.
​The Vibe: Good food, the best company, and that unmatched Belle Isle energy.
