Cork Jazz 2026

How times work. The festival only publishes door times, not set lengths, so every gig is drawn as a two-hour block. Use it to spot likely clashes, not as gospel — check the ticket page for the real running time before you commit.

Worth knowing:

• Annie Mac and Tara Kumar are both listed at 11:30pm in Cork Opera House on the Fri and share a ticket link — Tara Kumar looks to be the support on that bill, not a separate gig.
• Same for 49th & Main and Caolan Ryan, both 7pm Sat at Cyprus Avenue on one ticket.
• Joe-Armon Jones and The Vernon Spring at St Luke's on the Sun (7:30pm / 8pm) also share a link.

Not on here: seven acts appear in the line-up gallery with no date or venue published yet — Yankari Afrobeat Collective, Maya Libbey, Tyra-Lee Spry, TBL8 Brass, Aisling, Winnie Ama and Solène Laurence. The free Music Trail and Big Fringe pub sessions aren't published as a listing at all.

Scraped from the official line-up page on 9 September 2026. Re-check before booking.
