Jazz under the sun

THE sun shone, the music flowed and hundreds of jazz fans made their way to Noosa Heads Lions Park for the 2015 Noosa Jazz Festival.
Held from Thursday 3 September to Sunday 6 September, the Noosa Jazz Festival hosted a list of some of Australia’s best jazz singers and performers.
Headline acts included Darren Percival, Emma Pask, Colleen Hewett and Wendy Matthews, plus a great range of local acts.
The highlight for many Jazz Festival goers was the Tastings on Hastings lunch and street parade that took over Hastings Street on Friday afternoon (4 September).
Restaurants such as Noosa Heads Surf Club bistro brought their menu to the street, serving up delicious three-course meals to guests, while the street parade made its way through Hastings Street.
Noosa Today photographer Karina May was at the Jazz Festival Village to catch some of the action as event-goers made the most of relaxing in the sun to the cool sounds of jazz.
