Time Out says

Lumphini Park runs a little busier right now as it marks its 100th year, with International Jazz Day arriving at just the right moment. While celebrations spill across the city, International Jazz Day: In the Key of Peace keeps things grounded with an open-air gathering shaped around access and community, organised by the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration’s Music Division with UNESCO Bangkok. The programme moves from emerging talent to established names, featuring Horwang School Big Band (Horwang Music Academy), Casean Consonant and Bangkok Big Band, each offering their own take on jazz’s wide repertoire. Two guest performers close the bill: Koh Mr. Saxman with his smooth phrasing, and Saxpackgirl bringing a more contemporary edge.

May 3. Free. Lumphini Hall. 3pm onwards
