If you're thinking that means you need to bring your jumper to this jazz festival, then you are right but wrong all at the same time. Yes you will need a jumper for yourself as it's sure to be a little cold, but the jumpers that are at the festival's heart are actually for Warwick's trees. That's right - trees.
Each year artists create special jumpers for the trees in the main street of Warwick and there's even prizes for the best jumper. This year the jumper side of the festival has been extended to include trees in Leslie Park, so there will be some 150 decorated trees to admire. The jumpers aren't just for looks though, they will be judged and there are prizes involved.
Besides the tree jumpers, there is a list of events as long as your arm to enjoy, which, of course, includes jazz. Find out more about the events at Jumpers and Jazz in July by checking out the links below.
