Kids & Family
The stunning SFJAZZ Center may look all grown up, but the truth is that we love it when little music lovers fill up their seats. And while all ages are welcome to any show at the center, we throw an extra-special monthly matinee aimed right at families.
A limited number of free tickets are available to low-income Bay Area school or community groups. If you are interested in bringing your school or community group to a Family Matinee, please fill out our ticket request form.
At half the price and half the length, Family Matinees are the perfect primer for budding jazz cats.
Family Matinees
These affordably priced family-friendly concerts are a great way for you to pass your love of jazz onto the next generation. Bring the kids, the grandkids, and the neighbor’s kids to the gorgeous new SFJAZZ Center for an engaging, entertaining and interactive musical experience. Due to COVID-19, we unfortunately will not be presenting any in-person Family Matinee concerts this fall. Stay tuned for announcements regarding virtual Family Matinees and other family-oriented education events.
