Patrons of the 10th edition of Dominica’s Jazz ‘n Creole can expect an exciting array of fringe events leading up to the Mainstage on Sunday May 5, 2019 at the Fort Shirley in the Cabrits National Park.

Organizers are encouraging both locals and visitors alike to experience the north of Dominica through participation at Jazz ‘n Creole, the fringe events and also the sites and attractions available in this area.
