 Etype wows the crowd at the Great Tropical Jazz Party on Magnetic Island |
Now in its 13th year the Great Tropical Jazz Party is three nights and two days of cool jazz beneath the palms on Magnetic Island in north Queensland. Held annually on the second weekend in September, highly acclaimed musicans clamour to be invited to attend this unique festival created by the late Max Brown.
Held poolside amidst the tropical gardens of the All Seasons Resort Magnetic Island, the intimate venue creates an easy going ambience that brings out the best in the musicians, all of whom perform for no fee. With the jazz party following on closely from Sunferries Magnetic Island Race Week, September is a lively time on this usually laid back island of 3000 residents, just off the coast from Townsville.
