Overview
Overview
WHAT The Fillmore Street Jazz Festival blends art and soul in one of the country’s most unique
neighborhoods. The Festival is the largest free Jazz festival on the West Coast, drawing over
100,000 visitors over the Independence Day weekend. From sunup to sundown, visitors can
groove to the sounds of live music from multiple stages, browse the offerings of 12 blocks of
fine art and crafts and enjoy gourmet food and beverages. Asian to Cajun, paintings to pottery,
old favorites and new directions, the Fillmore Jazz Festival is not to be missed.
WHERE The Festival is held on Fillmore Street between Jackson & Eddy Streets in San Francisco.
Fillmore Street once again hops with an acknowledging nod to the spirit that once filled the
street. Boasting an eclectic mix of over 200 businesses: music clubs, shops and restaurants, it
continues to echo the music of its birth, transcending boundaries, embracing diversity, and
celebrating personal style.
BY WHO The Fillmore Street Jazz Festival is proudly presented by the Fillmore Merchants Association
and the Fillmore Jazz Preservation District Merchants Associations. Both Associations are non-
profit organizations formed by local property owners and merchants of the area in an effort to
improve the business environment on Fillmore Street in San Francisco.
The event is produced by Steven Restivo Event Services, LLC (SRES). The company is a long
time provider of event production services to chambers of commerce, merchant associations,
various city agencies, corporations, non-profit groups, and other event industry professionals.
