Discover the legacy, experience the revival.
The Vanport Jazz Festival is Oregon’s largest outdoor “smooth jazz festival.” The festival honors the historic city of Vanport and pays homage to the voices that formed Portland's jazz community. The festival has been described as having a “reunion feel” or a “cultural revival.” We invite you to come out and enjoy the sounds of nationally renowned musicians, local artisan food and merchandise vendors, and northwest wines and spirits.
