As a response to the ongoing humanitarian disaster in Palestine, a group of artists have for some months been planning a festival that will bring together luminaries from all areas of music to raise awareness, support and funds for the people of Gaza. As with the devastation that besets Palestine, the JAZZA Festival will not be a one off event but will travel to international venues. Only with the final liberation of the people of Gaza will the JAZZA Music festival stage it's final act, in Gaza itself. Please show your solidarity and solidarity by booking tickets for and spreading the word to friends and supporters.
