Suwon Jazz Festival Returns After 3 Years

[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] The Suwon Jazz Festival is returning after three years.

On the 29th, Suwon City announced that the '2022 Suwon Jazz Festival,' where you can meet top-tier domestic jazz vocalists and musicians, will be held on the 2nd and 3rd of next month from 5 PM at Jaeminan Bat (the lawn plaza in front of the sports climbing wall) in Gwanggyo Lake Park.

The city did not hold the Suwon Jazz Festival in 2020 and 2021 due to the spread of COVID-19.

This year, the city has prepared the event more abundantly to commemorate the first year of Suwon Special City and the launch of the 8th local government administration.

The event will begin at 5 PM on the 2nd of next month with a performance by singer Plzy. The stages will continue with the jazz specialist artist team 'SW JAZZ BIG BAND,' the Han Yun-mi Band, and singer Jang Hye-jin.

The second day starts with Plzy's performance, followed by the project band SJ×Andre, jazz band Seok Ji-min Trio, and pianist and singer-songwriter Jung Jae-hyung.

The finale of this year’s event will be Jung Jae-hyung. Debuting in 1995 with the group 'Basis,' Jung Jae-hyung is a pianist and singer-songwriter loved by the public for his heart-touching melodies and lyrics.

The Suwon Jazz Festival is a free concert. Visitors can freely watch on the lawn by preparing a mat.

A city official said, "We hope you enjoy the cool early autumn breeze and the melodies of jazz while appreciating the atmosphere of Gwanggyo Lake Park."
