Each year in late June, thousands of music lovers flock to Hampton to attend the Jazz Festival. The weekend long event is more than a series of concerts; it is an event.  It is a place for old friends to meet and greet people-watch, take pictures, eat, drink and party. 

The line-up for the 51st annual Hampton Jazz Festival was a great one.  Friday night featured Kustom Made, Gregory Porter, Jazmine Sullivan and Charlie Wilson.

Saturday’s singers included Lakeside, Avery *Sunshine, Boyz II Men and Maze featuring Frankie Beverly. Many of the festivalgoers were dressed in all white as a tribute to Mr. Beverly and his smooth band.
