Bermuda Jazz Festival in September at the Royal Naval Dockyard.

Grammy award winning performers Roberta Flack, Spyro Gyra, Diana Krall and Boney James are among the performers lined up for the September 15 and 16 concerts.

The festivities will kick off on September 11 at the Grotto Bay Beach Hotel with a jazz barbecue and other events during the week will include performances at Heritage and Harbour Nights, a black tie party at the Ruth Seaton James Auditorium and a lunchtime Jazz Jam in Victoria Park.

Following the concerts will be a jazz brunch at the Reefs and a special performance by Jazzmatazz as part of the Concert in the Park series.

Tourism Minister David Allen said he hoped the event would continue to grow.

He said: "I am looking forward to performances by this team of great international talent and seeing Bermuda's own talent get a showcase on such a grand scale.'' Some of the events have admission fees and tickets can be purchased from the Music Box and 27th Century Boutique at $50 per night for general admission and $65 per night for reserved seating.
