Thanks to the devoted SFJAZZ supporters, we are pleased to announce that the 25th Anniversary Gala held on Friday, May 16, 2008 at The Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco was a tremendous success. With the SFJAZZ High School All-Stars striking the first notes of the evening to an extraordinary performance with the illustrious Wayne Shorter and members of the SFJAZZ Collective, it was a Gala experience we will long remember – one that paid great tribute to this living, ever-relevant art form we call jazz.

We’re already looking forward to next year. The event will be held again at the beautiful Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco so make sure to save the date – Saturday, April 25, 2009.

Here are a couple reviews from this year's Gala.

We’ve prepared a concert photo gallery to keep the memories swinging just a little longer.
