Jazz in the Domain

Although the concert continues to be held it was renamed 'Summer Sounds in the Domain' for the 2010 Festival and since then it has moved away from the mainstream jazz, featuring instead a variety of world musicians.

Prior to its renaming in 2010 the concert was usually fronted by one or more famous Australian jazz music identities.

Su Cruickshank, Ricky May and James Morrison (musician) all headlined the concert over the years.

The main performances usually started around dusk although entertainment was often provided for people who arrived early.

Many people arrive at all the summer concerts in The Domain hours prior to the official start time so as to gain the best spots close to the stage.
