The Jazz Jamboree

Overview

By the time that Thursday night rolls around each, most of us are thinking about escaping the 9-to-5 grind. There's still one pesky weekday left to go until the weekend, of course, but sinking underground with a glass of rum in your hand — and with jazz tunes setting the upbeat but relaxing mood — sure does sound enticing.

That's The Jazz Jamboree at The Walrus Club, aka the Regatta spot you go to when you've got malt drinks and a cosy, dark space on your mind. On Thursday, May 2 from 6.30–11.30pm, it combines the watering hole's hefty array of 300-plus spirits and prohibition bar vibes with lively — and live — music.

The one-off shindig is in honour of International Jazz Day, because that's a thing, and it'll feature performances from four local trios as well as Plantation Rum and El Dorado tastings. All that music and tunes making you hungry? There'll also be a delectable delicatessen food stall — and entry is free.
