Seattle Jazz Vespers, now in its 19th season, is a secular concert of professional jazz music. These concerts are an opportunity for jazz lovers throughout the city to hear Seattle's best groups in a concert setting. Seattle Jazz Vespers is free and open to the public. No tickets or reservations are needed. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. Free parking, family friendly, refreshments after the conclusion of the concert. Come early for best seating.
The monthly concerts are hosted in the beautiful historic gothic sanctuary of Seattle First Baptist on First Hill at the corner of Harvard and Seneca streets. Artists perform two sets and during their break a "free-will" offering is taken to support the musicians, followed by a short non-sectarian inspirational message.
