The V&A Waterfront’s Makers Landing is thrilled to bring all Jazz lovers Friday Night Jazz at Makers Landing taking place every second and third Friday of the month.

“Jazz music has been an integral part of social gatherings in South Africa, particularly in urban areas like Cape Town. Both food and jazz are platforms of expression linked to culture, history and commentary. At Makers Landing this Winter, we want to create a vibrant, intimate atmosphere that brings people together by joining live music and food resulting in an enjoyable multi-sensory experience,” says Donald Kau, spokesperson for the V&A Waterfront.
