Bring a friend to CJC for FREE in May!*

We love to share the love of jazz around, so for all of May you can bring a friend to CJC for the first time, and they get in for free.

We all know someone who we think would enjoy live jazz if they could be enticed out.

So get on the phone, send a message, slide into their DM’s. However you get in touch: reach out to someone, and invite them down!

*It’s pretty simple really, but because some of you will ask, here are the terms and conditions:

  • Offer valid at the door of CJC gigs during the month of May 2023. You must tell us it is your friend’s first visit.

  • Maximum one free ticket per paying patron per event. If there’s 2 of you, and you bring 2 friends, that’s cool too.

  • It must be the recipient’s first visit to CJC. It could also be your first visit, in which case, one of you will be free.

Make a plan! Here’s what’s on:
