Peterborough Jazz Club
Peterborough Jazz Club was established in February 1992 by Laurie Jacobs, with its inaugural concert featuring the renowned Ronnie Scott Sextet.
The club operated continuously for nearly 30 years, hosting numerous British and international jazz artists, until it ceased activities in early 2022.
After a four-year hiatus, the club relaunched in January 2024, resuming its mission to bring high-quality jazz performances to the city.
As of January 2025, the club has been active for approximately 31 years, excluding the four-year break.
