Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul Festival

About Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul Festival

Moseley Park in Birmingham sets the frame for Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul Festival 2027, a jazz, funk and soul music festival running 9–11 July 2027. The first event took place in 2010, and the festival says 2027 will be its 17th festival in Moseley Park.

The scale stays tight. Daily capacity is listed at 2,000, with ticket tiers in place for day, weekend, U18 and family entry.

Lineup and Programme

The bill works from the jazz, funk and soul brief. Live performances use the Main and Second stages in the same arena, with the Off Piste Stage close by.

The festival says the programme combines unsigned acts with established international artists. DJ-led dance sets and club programming sit alongside the live programme, and food and drink traders operate in the main arena.

Who Is It For?

The audience is mixed-age, and the festival describes itself as 'for all'. Under-12s are free with a paying adult.

U18 tickets cover ages 12–17, and anyone aged 17 or under must be accompanied by an adult aged 21 or over. Family Weekend tickets are listed for 2 adults and 2 U18s.
