The Vail Jazz Festival, now in its 18th season kicks off this Sunday, June 24 with two free performances in Vail. The ever popular Jazz @ The Market and the new Jazz @ Kelly Liken both feature local jazz aficionado Tony Gulizia.

In partnership with the Vail Farmer's Market and Art Show, Jazz @ The Market is held each Sunday in the Jazz Tent at Solaris. The performances take place from 12-3pm and are the perfect way to spend the afternoon in Vail. This week's artist, The Tony Gulizia Trio presents energetic, feel-good jazz for music lovers of all tastes.

Sunday evenings at restaurant Kelly Liken will feature jazz performances by Gulizia, along with a different guest artist each week. Liken's Sunday Harvest dinner showcases the beautiful fruits and vegetables from the Vail Farmer's Market, along with Colorado ranchers, distillers, winemakers and craftsmen, making the evening a true Vail experience. Jazz @ Kelly Liken begins at 8:30pm and guests partaking in the Sunday Harvest dinner are asked to make reservations in advance.
