The New York Hot Jazz Festival is an annual New York City multi-stage marathon showcasing traditional jazz from New Orleans hot jazz through the big band swing era, as well as Manouche jazz and ragtime. The Festival was launched in 2013 as a day-long celebration for New York’s hot jazz and swing communities, but has expanded its mission to year-round presentations of and advocacy for traditional jazz through various collaborations and partnerships, including curation and co-presentation of special programs at Central Park SummerStage, Jazz at Lincoln Center, and Symphony Space, as well curating and hosting an annual dedicated Hot Jazz stage at NYC Winter Jazzfest. The Fest has also commissioned a number of original projects and facilitated in formation of several unique bands such as the Gotham Kings, Gotham SophistiCats, and The Mahogany Hall Pleasure Society Jazz Band. The Festival and the production company behind it are spearheaded by director/founder Michael Katsobashvili and associate producer Jennie Wasserman.
