International Jazz Day 2022 Registration Now Open on jazzday.com

Registration is now open for International Jazz Day 2022, with participants invited to add their April 30 events to the official calendar and map on jazzday.com. Registration is a great way for those celebrating International Jazz Day to broadcast their support for the initiative, and to ensure that each participating community is represented as part of the worldwide festivities.

Registrations can be submitted for free by completing the form at jazzday.com/register.

All those seeking to commemorate International Jazz Day 2022 on April 30 are welcome to submit registrations. Each year, an array of programming takes place in more than 190 countries on all seven continents. Events span performances, education programs, community service initiatives and more. Radio and television stations around the world get involved, spreading the positive message of International Jazz Day to their audiences, as do schools and universities, jazz clubs, libraries, music appreciation societies, UN and UNESCO clubs and local, regional and national governments, among numerous other partners.

A list of events registered to date can be found here, with the interactive map of events accessible on the jazzday.com homepage.

New in 2022, registrants whose International Jazz Day programs take place across multiple venues can have those venues reflected on the map without submitting additional event registrations, up to three venues per registration. Poster images can also now be uploaded directly to jazzday.com via the registration form. Most notably, each registered event receives a dedicated page on jazzday.com to showcase background about the event, social media links, and even photo and video content.

Any questions regarding registration can be addressed to the International Jazz Day Outreach Team.

About International Jazz Day

International Jazz Day is the world’s largest celebration of jazz. Each year on April 30, International Jazz Day brings together communities, schools, artists, historians, academics, and jazz enthusiasts all over the world to celebrate and learn about jazz and its roots, future and impact; raise awareness of the need for intercultural dialogue and mutual understanding; and reinforce international cooperation and communication. On International Jazz Day, this special art form is recognized for promoting peace, dialogue among cultures, diversity, and respect for human rights and human dignity; eradicating discrimination; fostering gender equality; and promoting freedom of expression. In December 2012, the United Nations General Assembly formally welcomed the decision by the UNESCO General Conference to proclaim April 30 as International Jazz Day. The United Nations and UNESCO now both recognize International Jazz Day on their official calendars.
