Renowned artists Aretha Franklin, Wayne Shorter, Wynton Marsalis, as well as Belle & Sebastian, will grace the stage of the upcoming Festival International de Jazz de Montreal, from 28 June to 7 July 2013.

 

Enshrined in the Guinness World Records as the largest jazz festival in the world, the 34th edition is set to transform the city of Montreal into a meeting place for more than 2.5 million music enthusiasts from all over the world.

 

Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings, known as the female reincarnation of James Brown, is also part of this year's line-up, which includes almost 3000 musicians and buskers, 25 venues and 800 concerts, of which two-thirds are free of charge.

 

Jazz it up and join the city-wide celebrations of music, sunshine and culture in Montreal, the city of festivals.
