There are Jazz Festivals in NYC all year long. The year starts with Winter JazzFest. Summer heats up with the Blue Note Jazz Festival, SummerStage, Jazz in July, and the Charlie Parker Jazz Festival. NYC jumps in again in October with Nublu, BRIC and Django Reinhardt.
Oh, and the sidewalks of New York are a never ending Jazz festival.
