Vancouver’s Jazz Festival is one of the only large-scale festivals that’s soldiered on through the pandemic, and it’s poised to provide a much-needed dose of arts and culture to the city’s music lovers. The festival is operating through a combination of livestreamed performances from national and international artists and real-life performances in public spaces, restaurants and concert halls. Highlights include Indigenous hip-hop duo Snotty Nose Rez Kids (June 25), a series of improvisational up-and-comers streaming live from Amsterdam (June 26), indie pop princess Amanda Sum (June 26), avant-jazz quintet Human Kind [Iteration] (June 25), and iconic jazz performers the Jerry Cook Quartet (June 26), among a crowd of others. Many of the events in the series are free to the public; check site for details.
