An immersive 4-day overnight music festival in the redwoods of La Honda, Northern California.

 

LOGISTICS & DIRECTIONS

 

Directions

Jazz Camp Fest will be held at the YMCA Camp Jones Gulch at 11000 Pescadero Road in La Honda, CA. The camp has 927 wooded acres, an outdoor amphitheater with fabulous acoustics, a beautiful 100 square-foot swimming pool, and miles of hiking trails.

Jones Gulch is 50 miles south of San Francisco on the Pescadero Creek-La Honda Road just south of Highway 84 near Half Moon Bay. It is only 11 miles from the coast and 30 miles from Redwood City.

Travel time from most San Francisco Bay Area communities is approximately 1 1/2 hours and only 1 hour from the S.F. and San Jose airports.

Arrival Time

Supporters Circle Early Check-in is 9:30 am - 10 am, and general admission arrival is between 10 am – 11 am on Friday, the first day of the festival. Our first meal is an outdoor BBQ at 12:00, so please arrive by 11:00 for registration, so that you will be able to unpack and settle in before lunch.  If you are camping, remember to arrive closer to 10:00 am to have time to set up your tent. 

Room assignments for cabins will be given at registration upon arrival.

For those staying at Siden Conference Center, you will be given your housing assignment for Friday evening if you are staying onsite at registration. On Saturday at 2pm, you will be able to drive to Redwood Glen Camp to pick up your Siden room key at the camp’s office. They will have your room assignment there.

“I just want to extend my personal gratitude for everything you have done for the Living Jazz community, and for me personally over the years. Living Jazz has made a huge difference in my life. It has become a community full of friends that I love dearly, and your programs have played a huge part in the development of my love for music and jazz.”
