Every September, the streets of Savannah come alive with rhythm and soul during the Savannah Jazz Festival—a beloved tradition featuring world-class performances, rich local history, and unforgettable community energy. Located in the heart of the Historic District, The Marshall House is the perfect place to stay for this landmark event.
The Marshall House is just a short walk from Forsyth Park, the primary venue for the Savannah Jazz Festival’s free outdoor performances. Enjoy the charm of Savannah’s squares, oak-lined streets, and local shops as you make your way to and from the music each day. Steps away from two historic theaters: The Lucas and The Trustees Theater, where musical events are often held.
Presented by the nonprofit Savannah Jazz, this free public event has brought legendary performances to Savannah since 1981.
The 2025 festival runs September 19–21, with concerts by world-renowned artists, regional standouts, and the beloved Savannah Jazz Orchestra.
The festival is also closely connected to Savannah’s jazz heritage, celebrating local legends like Johnny Mercer, Ben Tucker, James Moody, and Teddy Adams—many of whom are enshrined in the Savannah Jazz Hall of Fame.
