Jazz on the Grill

This close-contact-stage jazz event was birthed in 2008 with the initial desire to bring people to the then newly opened restaurant, Fire Grill Restaurant Steakhouse & Lounge bar in Rodney Bay. It was conceptualized by Chef Bobo Bergstrom and Peter Byrne who hired some of the best jazz musicians for the job. After the first year's tremendous success the well organized 8 days long Jazz on the Grill dinner time jazz event has grown to be the largest Free Concert jazz event on the island. At Fire Grill Restaurant you can enjoy true jazz while you dine in the restaurant or hang in the bar.

The week is filled with a line-up of local and international jazz artists and also hosts 4 days of St Lucia Jamz, featuring many artists performing on other stages around the island during St. Lucia Jazz. Since 2010 Jazz on the Grill is part of the Saint Lucia Jazz & Arts Festival official programme. The final, roof blowing Encore jam session, takes place on the Monday after the Pigeon Island main event. This is a night no one would want to miss out.

The event is also a major fundraiser with an auction where all proceedings go to St. Lucia School of music.
