The Bix Beiderbecke Memorial Society is announcing a change of location for the 2016 Festival.  Due to circumstances beyond our control, The Davenport Rivercenter is not available for our August 4-7 2016 Bix Jazz Festival dates.  In order to ensure the level of quality and convenience our attendees have come to expect, we have reached agreement with The Isle Of Capri and the City Of Bettendorf to host our 2016 event at the Waterfront Center and Isle Of Capri Hotel and Convention Center.

 

The BBMS Board of Directors most certainly would have preferred to continue our 45th anniversary in Davenport.  Plans for the 2017 festival will be solidified as we move further into the 2016 preparations.
