The Jazz Parade through Rothesay is a Saturday morning fixture at the Festival. Musicians and the public are marshalled through the town, led by Jenny Brown. The Jazz Brolly competition provides a real spectacle for the crowd.

This may be a Jazz Festival but we’re not averse to a bit of Folk in the mix. This was a busy Islander bar in Rothesay with George McDonald and some other local musicians having a free form session.
