College Park JazzFest

College Park JazzFest turns Edgewater Drive into a lively block party where music fills the air and the street becomes a dance floor. With three stages hosting 12 bands, you’ll hear a mix of jazz, R&B, and rock that keeps the energy flowing. This event has been a neighborhood favorite since 2002, attracting families and locals who come prepared with lawn chairs but often find themselves up and moving once the music kicks in. The mix of sounds and the casual setting make it easy to enjoy whether you’re a longtime fan or just curious. Alongside the music, local shops and restaurants open their doors, and food trucks offer plenty of options to keep you fueled between sets. The event’s rhythm encourages you to wander, grab a bite, and soak in the variety of performances at your own pace. It’s a relaxed way to spend an afternoon or evening, with a crowd that’s as much about enjoying good tunes as it is about sharing a familiar neighborhood vibe.
