About

Journey to Jazz is an annual Karoo festival drawing inspiration from the history, art and natural environment of the Prince Albert desert. This intimate and bespoke experience offers a week of music, masterclasses, food and nature all at the foothills of the Swartberg Mountains, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A full programme of local and international artists perform throughout the town in restaurants, on farms and in churches. The locals of Prince Albert curate a community events programme which sees visitors camping under the stars, doing yoga at sunrise and walking the Wolvekraal Conservancy.

Journey to Jazz is a showcase event of the Prince Albert Community Trust (PACT). It is a culmination of the Leadership Development work that takes place throughout the year with youth who are affiliated with the PACT community centre in Prince Albert. Journey to Jazz is conceptualized and driven by PACT and a crew of more than 80 young people of the region. Through ongoing training in hospitality, event management, media and life skills, local youth welcome visitors from around the country and globe to experience a true Karoo fees!

PRINCE ALBERT JOURNEY TO JAZZ
"This was my 2nd year attending j2j and I again thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. I'm happy ticket prices came down, more venues available, better market experience than last year. The Showroom is amazing. Too many shows started late. The aborted screening of Aitsa! was a huge disappointment. I would definitely finish watching it if it can be streamed/downloaded. Am awaiting refund for this show. 3 tickets."

Prince Albert Journey to Jazz Festival
"An exceptional event for first time festival. from the start of Night at the Museum to the inaugural opening at the stone quarry with Prof Thuli Madonsela, Riel Dancers and MC 's from the community the thrill and awe was palpable. the members of PACT were helpful, smiling and engaging, such upliftment of a community is a pleasure to witness. Well done to Ingrid and the team. the talent of our South African musicians also added the the experience without doubt, we have it all and Prince Albert town so pretty with wonderful restaurants, and guest homes. All in all a flawless experience. we will be back on 1st May 2024!! Silvana and Alan"
