Jazz is Everywhere: mjf Youth Advisory Board takeover
mjf @ First Street (ask Garden Stage)
Jazz is Everywhere is an event curated and presented from start to finish by our team of young people from mjf’s Youth Advisory Board (YAB).
Our YAB are a committed and enthusiastic group of 18–25 year-olds who have been recruited from open application. The group helps advise mjf and its programme on what they feel are the important aspects of running a live music event and organisation. At the same time, they learn about the roles and responsibilities that might be available to young professionals wishing to enter the music sector.
This year, we set them a task: to create a festival event for the Garden Stage programme at mjf2025 that reflects what they want to see at mjf.
From curating programme ideas, organising their roles, working with budgets, contracts, planning, production and marketing, this event is the culmination of those efforts. Come down to check out what they’ve produced: it could be a jam, a gig, a presentation, participatory activities…
Any young people interested in joining the YAB at the next recruitment round should sign up on our platforms or use the sign up form.
