Over 19 800 people attended the 27th annual Jazz on the Lake event at Zoo Lake on 1 September. The free event sought to bring together jazz lovers from across the city for a fun day for the whole family.
Entertainment included Cuba’s rising star and multi-awarded alto saxophone phenomenon Michel Herrera, formidable South African jazz band Tune Recreation Committee and more. Journalist Sarah Koning was there to capture all the action.
