LANCASTER – A new jazz festival will debut in May at Lancaster City Park.

Presented by the Marco and Sandra Johnson Foundation, the Johnson’s Smooth Jazz Festival will be held May 9, 2015 – the Saturday before Mother’s Day – as a tribute and celebration of mothers, according to organizers.

“If you are looking for the perfect place to spoil mom, or for her Mother’s Day gift, get tickets now to an outdoor venue with great food, a vendor’s village, and most of all, great music by jazz superstars,” stated event organizer Ashley Clutter. “Bring your lawn chairs, blankets, and comfortable attire as we celebrate moms in the AV!”

The jazz festival will feature:

  • Gerald Albright,
  • Bobby Caldwell,
  • Jon B.,
  • The Jeanette Harris Band, and
  • Nils.

The festival will be hosted by Sandra Johnson and John Mann, along with Pat Prescott and Greg Mack of 94.7-The Wave.

Gates open at 1 p.m. and the first act hits the stage at 5 p.m., Saturday, May 9, 2015, at Lancaster City Park, Field #5, located at 43063 N. 10th Street West in Lancaster.

Tickets are $75 for reserved seating, $55 for front lawn seating, and $40 for rear lawn seating. View a flyer for this event here.
