2021 will be a unique year for Jazz in the Valley. As the community reopens after COVID-19 closures, we wanted to celebrate the return of live music. Therefore, we are hosting 7 bands in downtown Ellensburg on July 30 and July 31. The best part? It's free!

On July 30, we will host the Dmitri Matheny Group featuring Gail Pettis, Michael Powers (solo), Harmonius Funk, and Mel Peterson. On July 31, we will host Rusty Cage, Nick Mardon Blues, and Michael Powers with a band. Our venues will be The Red Pickle (outside in their parking lot with food service inside), The Pearl Bar and Grill (music in the back bar and food service in the restaurant), and The Top Of The Burg rooftop bar at Hotel Windrow (music on the roof and in the lobby, with food and drinks in both locations as well). See you there!

Ellensburg, Washington Music Festival

Experience a music festival like no other

Jazz in the Valley is a nonprofit music festival in downtown Ellensburg, Washington. 2021 is our 23rd festival. We are excited to bring a bunch of performances to downtown Ellensburg venues with great artists playing all kinds of music. In most years (not 2021), we also focus our beer and wine garden on unique local craft beers from Iron Horse Brewery, Whipsaw Brewery, Roslyn Brewery, and Gard Vintners.
