Calling All Music Fans <\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Lake District has a particularly vibrant buzz about it this year. Is it the World Heritage accolade from 2017? James Cordon as Peter Rabbit on the big screen? More likely it is the impressive line-up of music festivals set for the Lake District 2018.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s take a look at what\u2019s on.<\/p>\n

Keswick Jazz & Blues Festival <\/strong><\/h3>\n

At the heart of this vibrancy is the beautiful North Lakes town of Keswick.  Indecently, this market town in the north of the Lake District World Heritage Site welcomes no-other than His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales, later on this month (26 March) for a very special UNESCO plaque unveiling.<\/p>\n

For visitors to the region in May, specifically May 10-13, be ready for 4 days of top-class jazz and blues set in some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. This is what the re-vamped 2018 Keswick Jazz & Blues Festival<\/strong> has to offer.  Keswick sits on the shore of Derwentwater and is surrounded by mountains. What a uniquely peaceful setting for some truly inspiring music. 2018 is also a particularly special year for the long-established Jazz festival that is attracting some big industry names; Marla Dixon brings New Orleans jazz scene to Keswick and Yorkshire-born talent \u201cRico\u201d Tomasso brings his humour and wit, not to mention outstanding passion and award-wining trumpet performances.<\/p>\n

Ambleside Days \u2013 A Contemporary Music Festival <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Zeffirellis \u2013 cinema, restaurant and jazz bar \u2013 has been at the pulsing heart of Ambleside in the centre of the Lake District for over 30 years and this summer we\u2019re excited to hear that they are again hosting Ambleside Days A Contemporary Music Festival<\/strong> \u2013 \u201ca celebration of world class contemporary music\u201d \u2013 following its inaugural success in 2017.<\/p>\n

Although entering its second year, the contemporary jazz festival is reaching acclaim. In fact, last month the admired Jazz FM Awards announced an evening with Dave Holland \u2013 Ambleside Days Festival at Zephirellis Cinema as nominee for \u2018Live Experience of the Year\u2019. <\/strong>This super mid-summer festival runs from August 30 \u2013 2 September 2018.<\/p>\n
