Dominican Republic Jazz Festival is set for 6-9 November in Puerto Plata city, Sosua and Cabarete

Sponsored by the Ministry of Tourism Ron Macorix and residential developments in Puerto Plata (Sea Horse Ranch, Millennium Hotel, Ultravioleta and Casa Linda), the Dominican Republic Jazz Festival returns to the north coast once again this November. Organizers bring jazz to local residents and tourists who gather under the stars. Last year, the festival enjoyed record-breaking attendance levels with a combined audience of over 10,000 people, say the organizers. FeduJazz, a non-profit organization, also organizes musical workshops for young people, making the most of the visiting musicians.
The festival is free, but VIP tickets are available for pre-sale and the proceeds benefit the foundation, which works with young people in Puerto Plata.
