The Barbados Jazz Festival, which celebrates the best in international and local jazz talent, has become a major annual Caribbean event. 
The venues for the festival also reflect the diverse nature of the festival. The modern Sir Garfield Sobers gymnasium suits a large crowd.
The open air Farley Hill National Park is ideal for a day of picnicking and jazz and the lovely Sunbury Plantation House is over 300 years old and steeped in history.
